There has been more uploading of archive television onto YouTube than I realised... so following a suggestion of ![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
magister I've watched the first twelve minutes or so of episode 1.1 of Colditz. It takes almost a full ten minutes for the episode to reach the multicamera video studio, the fixed abode of BBC drama, the end of a progression from newsreel footage to new footage posing as newsreel, to colour location filming maintaining a cold quasi-documentary realism, to an intense two-hander scene on video. I'll be back to watch the rest.
