Just found this channel whilst browsing the guide. Never heard of it before, is it new? Anyway I just missed Sussex Fortnight. Made in 1950. By bicycle with Raymond Glendenning to Arundel, Littlehampton and a horse show, ending with the Goodwood Cup. I don't have Sky so can't watch it on there and did a search and nothing on YouTube. Anyone any idea where I can watch this? Thanks in advance.

You can get it on Freeview - channel 81. Prepare for huge doses of nostalgia! One of the highlight films was the Jigsaw Murders filmed in and around Brighton in the early 1960s.

It's not that new I've been watching it for ages, albeit via Sky, and have no idea how you can pick it up.

A great mix of old films with short 10 to 15 films on a wide range of topics, recently there have been a few on steam trains. Also the odd TV series from yesteryear.

I know I can get the channel on TalkTalk, I was just wondering if I can get to see this Sussex Fortnight anywhere, as I missed it earlier.

Some of Talking Pictures is great. We were gripped by The Human Jungle, which was well written/directed/acted. But then this is balanced out by some absolute dross, which you're not surprised hasn't been seen since - but are puzzled over why it still exists and wasn't wiped.

I have been known to partake. It's been around for a fair old while and Francis Rossi, he of Status Quo, is a big fan.

To be fair they do show some much more up to date stuff as well to keep the youngsters happy.
