Brilliant clip! I look forward to buying the DVD.

This event just gets better and better each year.

David,
Your film crew did a fine job on this taster...
It will be great to see the DVD when released--will there be an NTSC Region 1 version available for here in the US?

Posted by Graham Ritchie (Member # 559) on March 01, 2018, 09:03 PM:

Thats a pity it wont be available to watch unless you buy the DVD [Frown]

Posted by Brian Fretwell (Member # 4302) on March 02, 2018, 03:22 AM:

And my computer says it can't play thay clip anyway - must be Flash video which it won't do due to security issues.

re dvd everyone has been able to watch it up to now . re cost it cost a fortune to film this event a team of 10 travelled 100 mile round trip and was filming from 9 am till 5pm doing interviews with collectors I asked severval forum members to do this for me guess what not one reply from anyone maybe you were busy that day walking the dog or pegging out your washing

Posted by Mark Mander (Member # 340) on March 02, 2018, 05:31 AM:

Maybe too far to travel!!! To be honest why would anyone want to buy a DVD of a film fair? Mark

Posted by David Skillern (Member # 607) on March 02, 2018, 06:23 AM:

I've already booked for this November - but this year my wife and I will be staying at the Imperial Hotel.

Posted by David Guest (Member # 2791) on March 02, 2018, 07:02 AM:

at least mark you could see what a terrific venue this is that you are missing

Posted by Mark Mander (Member # 340) on March 02, 2018, 07:18 AM:

I go every year David,It's not me who misses out but I wouldn't buy a DVD of it,over a 400 mile round trip for me,Mark

Posted by David Guest (Member # 2791) on March 02, 2018, 07:39 AM:

Posted by Joe Caruso (Member # 11) on March 02, 2018, 10:48 AM:

Do I phone the Holiday Inn there?

Posted by Paul Adsett (Member # 25) on March 02, 2018, 11:31 AM:

I certainly intend to purchase David's DVD. I hope he will make an NTSC version, but if not I can still play the PAL version via my computer.

Posted by David Guest (Member # 2791) on March 02, 2018, 12:20 PM:

hi joe if you like good food and plenty of it and good choice then book the Hilton food is superb and you can have as much as you like .I will be adding a list of hotels just minutes walk from the Hilton if you want somewere else

Posted by Adrian Winchester (Member # 248) on March 03, 2018, 11:09 PM:

The promo looks great and gives a promising indication of the care they are putting into this production. I'll certainly buy a couple (one for the raffle). And if anyone who has never been needs any further encouragement, hopefully this will provide it!

Posted by Joe Caruso (Member # 11) on March 06, 2018, 08:14 AM:

Thanks, David, I'll go by your word and list - Hilton sound splendid - Cheers, Shorty

Posted by Simon McConway (Member # 219) on March 07, 2018, 10:23 AM:

It'll be great to meet you Joe. I'm adding another pint to the bar for you when you get to the hotel. It's amazing the effort you are making to get here when you consider there are those less than 30 minutes away from Blackpool who make lame excuses.

Posted by Nigel Higgins (Member # 4312) on March 07, 2018, 11:13 AM:

make that 3 pints if joe make sit ,he wont be able to stand up for long at this rate,be good to see you bud.

Posted by David Guest (Member # 2791) on March 07, 2018, 02:09 PM:

there will be a free gift of me as well as a pint . if you attend I am over the moon that you are travelling all this way as simon says some people cant be bothered to come when they are only 10 mins away I guarantee joe you will not be disappointed I have got a few surprises lined up this year so its not to be missed

Posted by Dominique De Bast (Member # 3798) on March 07, 2018, 04:39 PM:

I certainly don't regret to have travelled to attend the last two editions of this great event. And of course, I will do my best to be there this year as well.
