The Story Of The Guitar
« on: October 06, 2008, 03:00:15 PM »
MK will feature in the second part of a three part BBC series, to be broadcast next week.

The first ep was on last night (I missed it) and is repeated later this week. Next Sunday's ep will feature MK according to the link above.

Unfortunately my DVD recorder is knackered just now, so I can record these to my HDD, but can't get them off.

Ideally somebody needs to record the direct DVB stream, somebody used to do this (Tommy J?).

I watched last night's episode and MK was on for a very short time, talking about how he was walking past a guitar shop holding his dad's hand and saying "I want that!"   It looked as if it had been recorded some time ago to me because Mark looked thinner and his hair was not like it is now imo.  It can be seen again for seven days on iplayer.

Can anyone on the east side of The Pond record this????  Please?
But a spoonful of forgiveness
Goes a long, long way
And we all should do our best

Oops. As said earlier, this is repeated later this week on BBC4. I can record to my HDD but can't put it onto DVD unfortunately.

Alternatively I can go and get it off one of the torrent sites and upload to the tracker tonight, but I don't know if Divx/Xvid is allowed?

I made a video recording of part 1, but didn't have time to watch yet! I thought that Mark wasn't in the program, but now you tell Val, I sure need to watch tomorrow evening and try to find him!  :P

IF somebody can record the shows on DVD, then it would be much easier because I can't put the video tape on my computer. All I perhaps could do is sending the video tape to somebody who can put it online. ::)

I read on MKnews that Mark will be in the next program!  ;)

Fieneke - Don't get too excited - in the first episode Mark is only on for about 10 seconds!  :)

I can't put the video tape on my computer.

Just pop it on top of the monitor.

Dusty, if an xvid is in lossless format, you can upload the raw files on the tracker.  We have a mod file torrent upped days ago and Fran managed to make a decent DVD after downloading.   :D
