The fin day was great, but what I really enjoyed was seeing some of the old video, some of which I'd not seen for years.

I think that in the loft somewhere I have the Rock Goes to College video and Rich Boys from Swap Shop, but even if I have, I'm sure the quality will be dodgy (the Rock Goes to College video was a copy of an old Betamax tape), so is there any way of getting hold of decent copies? I was particularly inrigued with the Old Grey Whistle Test stuff, where can we get that?

Hey sargeo that is top secret - dig out those videos as they say "we can rebuild them" and " we have the technology"

By the way i was not ignoring you, have been away on church weekend got home late yesterday the only clip i got was the "excited" bit - where is the rest?

I reckon Andy Labrow is the "video keeper" - perhaps some may be able to be released on a new DVD?

Come on Peter (Banksy) - what's the definitive answer

The answer is the band do not own the rights.  Certain videos are copyright to the BBC and others are just not good enough quality (and owner of the rights unknown).

The band may not own the rights but is there any chance they could get permission to use?.

If so this could be built into the price.

People have inquired at the BBC they have no knowledge of RGTC if they have no knowledge there must be a chance of letting the band use?

The next thing is cost.......    ..... lets get the single out the door first.

I think the next spending should go into a new album (my thoughts only!!!)
