A client of ours had one of his trucks prominently featured in an episode of the TV show 'The Vice' on Monday (ITV, 9-10.30pm). He's asked me to get a tape of the show.
Anyone know if there's a regular market in tapes of popular TV shows?

I called the producers who were very friendly and helpful, and even told me the time, date and location of filming, but couldn't part with a copy tape. Hoever, they said it could probably be arrange for a price, which will be steep, as it involves transcription from orignal masters etc, something a bit difficult to justify for af ew screen seconds.

Can anyone recommend a fan website or newsgroup to put out a plea for this sort of thing?
Thanks
Andrew Denny

	How about fan sites? Is there a web site somewhere that co-ordinates fan sites?
