I'm sure you're right about 'Raiders' as I don't think there was another one subsequently. I recall being at the BFCC when it was announced, and it was given to Derek Simmonds as Derann were involved in UK distribution. A bit sad in the sense that everyone knew that even if Marketing still existed at the time, it was their last release and the end of an era. It would be interesting to know if anyone from Marketing was invited to receive it.
