I used to be a film fanatic. In York, I screened 'That was the week that
was' from the archive 16mm film the BBC lent out. They only had the reels,
because the legal department were convinced they would be sued and forced
the producers to film the show and hold offline in case they needed to
prove what was said on -air David Frost and Pete/Dud all had 'form' here
from Private Eye, and other stuff. it was made in the days of the profumo
affair still being fresh in the mind, so the threat was quite real.

Wonderful to get to play with the reels. Also (in a computing aware age)
truly scary they were available for loan. It was the 80s, I have no idea if
they still do this.

I suppose the yorkists online here will be able to say if that converted
church theatre arts centre is still open, over by bishopsgate I think.
Can't remember the name.
