The Avengers on video - guide?

Brollies, bowlers and boots (kinky, of course) are just a mouse click away. Tell us what Avengerish things you have found on the web.

The Avengers on video - guide?

Post by Frankymole »

Is there a guide (preferably with photos) to the VHS releases of The Avengers?

There is this old page I had to find using the Wayback Machine:
https://web.archive.org/web/20190906041 ... uk_vhs.htm

I don't know if there is a more up-to-date equivalent anywhere.

Now that new page has gone too!

I think Alan has removed his pages because of getting legal threats from the image copyright holders.

He got hit with an invoice for a photo he had used on one of his ITC sites so he closed the lot down.

Crazily short-sighted by the copyright holder given how much promotion Alan has done for the series, I've bought entire DVD box sets because of his books, sites and research, not to mention Canal-licensed CDs.

sorry to hear about Alan's problems..getting an invoice ? wow...hopefully, it wasn't off the charts...seems that it was penny wise and pound foolish, for say canal, to 'charge' and not take into account benefits of Alan's work, etc

I don't think it was Studio Canal but I don't have the details.
