BBC "Russian Language and People" Videos?
Anyone old enough to remember the BBC production "Russian: Language and People" from the 80s? It was an excellent beginners video series (20 parts I think), about the Soviet people, geography, commerce, and of course language.
I've been looking for them for years (I have a few on video, but not great shape unfortunately). I contacted the BBC, but never got a response. Though outdated, they provide good language skills which never really get old (except for idioms perhaps).
I googled by the way, but only the book and cassettes came up, not the videos. Some schools have the videos, but I doubt they'd be willing to spend the time to dub them for non-students. Perhaps I'm wrong.
Just curious.
Thanks.

Hi, I'm looking for episode 16 of this series, it's the only one I have missing. Maybe do a swap with one of you who has other episodes missing? I'm currently transferring the episodes I do have from video to DVD.

I do have episodes missing. I do have episode 16. Too drunk to see which ones I'm missing. Let's chat. Not now though.

When you've sobered up let me know which ones you have missing and we can arrange a swap.

Your missing episodes are now on DVD. Let me know how you'd like to do the swap.

Scott - do you now have the missing episodes?
