[Neil Jones]

I think the "its an old programme" will probably wash for 90% of the enquiries on the matter, but I think those people would be in for a shock if they had access to another source (DVDs or whatever) and saw how different that looked compared to the airings on Drama.

But of course most people will say they saw it like that back in the 90s, which is an obvious memory failure, because Central just wouldn't have let The Upper Hand go out like that... If you wanted the filmic look you'd make the show on film in the first place, but then we wouldn't be having this conversation....
