The Network site doesn't have the ATV/ITC sections anymore, so I thought I might as well stick links to the ATV version:

I notice, or maybe I'm slow with this, that Cloppa Castle's original Volume 1 and 2 are no longer on the site and its  just the complete series. I have Volume 2 so wouldn't be worth getting that one really.

I also thought Network had released 'Timeslip' but appears not.

Timeslip complete series is out on DVD, I've seen it on Amazon and other places.  I don't know why Network didn't release it when they have released others from the 1970's.

I'm very impressed no one said "but Four Feather Falls was Granada" clearly everyone knows the AP Films company became part of ATV. Same with Torchy (series 1 only) being APF for Rediffusion. Oddly series two was made by Pathé for some reason.

Yes, I knew ATV eventually took on Four Feather Falls and Torchy.  That's something I knew anyway  Smiley

It may be that Network have stopped selling the Timeslip boxset because when I was looking to buy Space 1999 it wasn't on there site so I had to buy it from Play - yet it was a Network release.

It maybe that Network are planning to re-lease 1999 and Timeslip at some point.

Network hasn't yet released Timeslip.  The only DVD of Timeslip that's been available was the Carlton set from a few years back.  It was hoped that Network would release it after they released other kids TV shows such as The Jensen Code, Sky and King of the Castle.

I have the Carlton box set. I'd buy it again if they could find the original colour episodes, intead of the black and white versions that were issued.

Acorn have released "The Strauss Family"(ATV)-one of the best-loved period drama serials of the '70s.

Network are going to release all the surviving episodes of '70s police drama Hunter's Walk-that's 10 out of  39.

Funny I said to someone on Facebook last  year this would be a good thing for them to do.

I remember watching Hunters Walk when I was a nipper. I watched it in bed at 9pm every Monday night. I can even remember its jolly little theme tune (it wasn't exactly The Professionals'!!) I seem to remember it being more 'Dixon' than 'The Bill', but it was entertaining.

Yes,it had a similar vibe to Dixon,Daniel-another show which I loved. Sadly,the vast majority of Dixon was also wiped.

I loved Hunters Walk! I thought it had a kind of retro vibe compared to similar shows of the 1970s. I'm so sorry to hear so much has been wiped. Typical! Happened to so many great shows... Sad
