Well, I've been involved in three programmes, and have studio quality
tapes of all three (including one in French, done by Antenne 2), provided
to me by the makers.

Obviously, I don't make rip-off copies, but I had no difficulty obtaining
the tapes.

Mind you, I wasn't just a guest on the show -- in all three my family was
the subject of the film.

Cheers,
