Elite on the TV

Post by DaddyHoggy »

Mainly for UK members (or those who can find a proxy server to use the iPlayer...).

BBC2 7pm tonight (Thursday 15th) "Electric Dreams" - tonight is the 1980s and the family is given a BBC B and of course Elite to play on...

There's not much Elite action in this, as far as I remember, just a quick flash of a spinning wireframe Cobra. The episode is a repeat, and I saw the original.

Maybe you could start a Kickstarter Campaign to found your £4500 pledge. 8)
Thanks to Gimi, I got an eBook in my inbox tonight (31st May 2014 - Release of Elite Reclamation)!

Its still an interesting show, this is where a family goes through a kind of timewarp, increasing another year each day, with changes to their house decorations and original equipment (reconditioned lol). Started from 1970, going to the present day.

I would still like to watch it.
I don't know that show at all, sounds interesting. But no kind of IP-TV or any streamed video over internet will work here.
(too poor PC for modern codecs) :(

bah, maybe sooner or later it will appear on Danish TV. :)

Except for viewers in Scotland, who have their own programmes ...
