Story

After almost 40 years in television production I am now the custodian of a large commercial film and video archive. At present the collection is in long term storage so, despite many requests, its films and master tapes are rarely seen. Capt Tom's 100 Challenge prompted me to search my home for old VHS  tape copies and sample DVD's of programmes in the archive that I could show interested people via Facebook. I have now uploaded 100 clips linked to my hometown of Doncaster. Hopefully some of them will stir a few local memories. Since archive film is often used  for reminiscence therapy I thought my 100 clips could be used to support our local dementia  charity DonMentia.  I hope folk enjoy looking at the video clips and any donation, however small, will really help DonMentia to help those in need..
