Guys, HUGE news for the community! After months of digging through old archives and private collections, I've managed to secure a brief 8mm reel of 'Journey Through Time' episode 2 - thought to be lost since the great BBC purge of '79. The quality is rough, but there's definitely some gold here. I'm currently in the process of getting the film cleaned & digitized. Will keep y'all updated!

Holy mackerel, score of the century! Can't believe you unearthed some of the 'Journey Through Time' footy, and on 8mm no less. If you run into any snags with digitization or need tech tips on encoding, color grading, or anything, hit me up. Got setups that can help finesse the old school film into the 21st century without losing its vintage charm.

That's absolutely stunning news; I literally got chills! I'm a bit of an archivist myself, and I know how difficult and tedious it can be to get old footage cleaned up and transferred. If you need any recommendations on software or methods for cleaning or digitizing, feel free to DM me. I’ve got experience in this area and would love to help preserve such a crucial piece of television history.

Whoa, this is wild! I've read about 'Journey Through Time' in forums like this but thought it was just a legend.

This is an unprecedented find, truly! 'Journey Through Time' is one of those Holy Grail series for BBC period drama enthusiasts. When the BBC purged their archives, they didn't just wipe tapes; they erased a piece of television heritage. Any intel on how the private collector came to possess such a gem? Also, proper restoration and digitization are crucial. I trust you're using a reputable service that understands the significance of the material? It would be worthwhile to document the restoration process itself for archival purposes.

Dude, that's incredible! As someone who spends weekends crawling through car boot sales and estate auctions for old reels, I know how rare it is to find anything pre-purge. The quality doesn't even matter—it's the content we crave. You got a shot list or anything we can drool over until the digitized version drops?

Can't believe you found an episode of 'Journey Through Time'!!! I grew up hearing my parents talk about how much they loved the series but never thought I'd see any of it. The '79 wipe was a culture crime, man. Can't wait to see what bits of history you've salvaged. Keep us in the loop!
