I recorded PCBH onto 69 tapes, each with ten episodes in long play. with the first tape being a 5 hour tape with 12 eps on. Being the sad bastard I am, I named each of the tapes after characters from the show....as soon as I'd gotten my final collection together, the announcement of a complete DVD set came along. I was happy to get them all digitally, but I was also put out that my collection was now redundant in effect.

Not every single episode from the show, but I managed to collect most of the September 2010 episodes of Eastenders.

I did it using an iPlayer downloader.
Thought the only way was wiring a xbox up to a dvd recorder. |

I didnt think that was possible.

Im suprised a popular show as that still hasent been given proper season sets in the shops.
If PCBH can get the entire run released then anything is possible. Its just a shame that these TV companies just dont care about listening to fans opinions as there has been alot of petitions over the years to get such and such a DVD release and it never happens. |

I love collecting DVD box sets of TV shows - it's my obsession! I feel right at home reading through this thread. I'm currently collecting every episode of The Bill on DVD. At the moment I have the years of 1995 and 2008, half of 2007 and a handful of episodes from 1989.
I also have every episode of Waking the Dead, Spooks, Gavin and Stacey, Bad Girls and Jonathan Creek. I have most episodes of Silent Witness, and I have all the series of French crime series Spiral so far. I am a massive fan of crime shows. |

Woah! This thread has taken me back. Back in the 90's and early 2000's I was a prolific taper trying to make my own video library. At one point I had over 400 videotapes.
I remember once stacking them in me-sized piles to count them and that was a lot of piles! Seriously, I got to around 420 and got so embarrassed that I had so many I stopped counting. I used to have a couple of exercise books in which I used to keep a written database. Categories over two lines were: Title:___________Category :___________Date Started: Type:____________ Mins:_____________Date Finished: (orig or copy) The front page was my weekly planner (dates and day entry's done in pencil so they could be changed each week) Yes, I really was that anal. Most of them were copies, I only had around 20-25 shop bought VHS. It did tail off in the early 2000's. I think the last things I taped intending to keep (I didn't) was the 2005 series of Doctor Who - and that was the only thing I taped from that year. Back in the 90's, by that time (March) I would have already been up to 15 tapes on average filled. By this time I had already started buying DVD's and TV shows I had faithfully recorded complete like Drop the Dead Donkey, Due South, The Detectives, Father Ted, Buffy, Bab 5 and the X-Files were replaced and the tapes thrown out. I have to admit there was something appealing about replacing a load of tapes of a season that measured around a foot with a DVD box set that was the size of a couple of books. Copied movies were also replaced on DVD. Eventually most of my tapes were thrown out. I've gone from 420 plus videotapes to around 20-25 which I keep intending to put onto DVDs. All I've got left now are the complete People's Century, a comedy drama called Common As Muck (about binmen, starred Tim Healy & Edward Woodward), 2 tapes with the complete Now & Again season (long play), Robin of Sherwood series 2, a couple of random tapes that I used to balance my old PC's stack on for airflow, 4 tapes containing matches from France 98 3 tapes containing Newcastle United UEFA Cup games from KK's era, (With the exception of Robin of Sherwood these have not been released on DVD in the UK) I got rid of the last of my tapes of The Bill last month when the episodes that I had wanted to keep (the fall of Don Beech and the Sun Hill fire) I recorded off Drama. a couple of tapes that I did of a themed series I created called 'Variations on a Theme' - one was US shows including christmas episodes of 'Moonlighting' and 'Perfect Strangers' - the other was US SCIFI, includes the last episodes of 'Dark Skies' and 'Space: Above and Beyond' And that's it. If I ever get round to connecting up my old PVR/DVD/VHS machine to the TV in the bedroom I can copy those and get rid of them. Nowadays its turned around. Out of over 300 DVDs/Blu-ray's, only around 10-15 are copies. The things we did back then... I bet back then you could never have imagined being able to store your video collections onto something the size of a book, eh? |

That was a stupid idea swapping uncut eps for edited eps on Drama.
