PHOTO GALLERY

The shows Trumpton, Camberwick Green and Chigley were shot on a 16mm wind-up Bolex camera, which meant definition was relatively low to begin with, by the standards of today. Previous VHS copies and DVDS were made from a tape of an optical copy taken from the original print (at standard resolution). In some cases, the tapes held by the BBC had stretched. The current HD files were taken from a 1080 scan of the original prints held in the vaults of the BBC at Perivale when their post production team acquired a new digital HD scanner.
