Guest transit Posted March 16, 2007 Share Posted March 16, 2007 Can anyone remember the late eighties programmes which featured what life was like living "On The Manor". I think it was shown weekly. for six weeks , each programme was 30 mins. Is there a dvd available? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrinderBloke Posted March 16, 2007 Share Posted March 16, 2007 I remember this series, very much doubt it was every / will ever be released. Best I think we can hope far is that The BBC releases some material on the Net as it promised a few years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheffield History Posted March 16, 2007 Share Posted March 16, 2007 I might be able to source this on dvd - I'll ask around the people who will know Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest brownncream Posted October 12, 2009 Share Posted October 12, 2009 I might be able to source this on dvd - I'll ask around the people who will know Try contacting ITN Source who deal with all the archive material for Yorkshire Television (ITV Yorkshire). If they can't help, try YTV archives in Leeds. They have made editions of Calendar available before at a cost of £14 per 30 minute show, so it may be expensive.

Guest suzy Posted November 4, 2009 Share Posted November 4, 2009 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WZeZg9FUH_c...1888C9A037A78A0 ;) What a find!! Well done. It makes very interesting watching. Had forgotten how orange was so popular back then - one of the women in her kitchen even has trousers to match her work units. Its got a very eerie quality to it and is quite sad, particularly to those who, many moons ago (in the 60's) lived there. Back then it was a totally different place. Its a pity they did not show the school - Standhouse - though maybe it was in some other footage if it ran for a number of weeks???? Anyone remember the school or have pics of it? :unsure: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest wayneybabes Posted November 5, 2009 Share Posted November 5, 2009 i'm going to download these and put on a DVD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
THYLACINE Posted November 5, 2009 Share Posted November 5, 2009 i'm going to download these and put on a DVD Wow, I got real excited when I saw The Manor videos on U Tube but my download speed is too slow to view the whole video in one go so I thought I would open an account and do what you suggested, but one of the conditions of opening an account says that uploading material you do not own is against the law and a breach of copyright etc etc and your account will be terminated. So, my question is, Wayneybabe, is uploading the same as downloading? In other words can we copy stuff and make a DVD legally? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone on here know how we stand on this? for now, I have downloaded them all onto my pc and will watch all nine clips in a playlist through media player Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But make sure you don't answer a knock on the the door or let any strange men into the house while your watching it .. and keep the DVD under the matteress when not in use. Just a joke .. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest wayneybabes Posted November 7, 2009 Share Posted November 7, 2009 found out yesterday that the old fella in the programme, Mr Ismay, was the grandfather of a friend of mine who i speak to on the tram. she also has a copy of 'on the manor' on video Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveH Posted November 7, 2009 Share Posted November 7, 2009 found out yesterday that the old fella in the programme, Mr Ismay, was the grandfather of a friend of mine who i speak to on the tram. she also has a copy of 'on the manor' on video So for copyright purposes,- Is the video a professionally made, purchased copy or was it recorded from the TV when the series was originally shown? I can't really see the difference between recording a programme from the telly onto video tape, or a DVD as it would be now and downloading from the Internet and putting it on a DVD In both cases you personally do not own the copyright and in both cases the "intellectual property" (ie the actual programme) has cost you nothing. The only cost is that of the blank recordable media, a small amount of electricity charged to your bill and a very small proprtion of the cost of the recording equipment. In both cases you finish up with a copy of something you would like to see. Now if you were to make multiple copies and start selling them for profit or to charge people to come and watch your copy I can see a problem with that. But just to watch your own copy for "private, personal use" Like most legal stuff the laws on copyright must be deliberately over complex and difficult so that some lawyer can charge extortionate daylight robber fees to sort out such matters lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some CD's played normally in a CD player but acted totally differently on a computer, offering instead short video sequences to about 2 to 4 of the tracks and that would be all but the normal 20 audio tracks, which a CD player could access no problem were "invisible" to a computers filing system. Still not worked out how they did that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
