UK TV Shows

with the releases of the 3 dvds of old grey whistle test, that ill-fated (though brilliant tracklist!) the tube dvd - there should be room for more of those releases - as it proves to me the vaults are still filled with true gems + I wonder if others would be interested in those archive dvds as well - shows that seem to be logical for those things would be: Something Else, Other Side Of Midnight, So It Goes,...
wouldn't be great if we could gather together some info on those shows + might mail tv-stations etc + show them there is still interest in those things?

I would to get those if they every came out. I would even settle for really clear dvd-r copies. They should release a Best of Top of the Pops DVD for every year in the 80's.
