Looks like I will have to give Lofty a nudge and see if he has managed to find the copy I asked him about.

I could find only a handful of records of it, at the links below, and when I clicked
on the 'order' link in the first URL it said there was a 'fatal error' which sounds a
bit hopeless.

It seems to be the world's most elusive video (I used my best Google
tracking skills and really struggled to find it :) ) but were these sites
ones you'd already eliminated?

All my other search strings just brought up pages and pages of books, even

Good luck!

If you have a recordable DVD player you can sometimes ahem legally make ahem a back up copy ;)

i'd love to see these, Lofty seems like an all knowning gentle giant - from the Duncan Dares shows anyway.
i've read his books several times, and i'd love to buy a copy of the videos / dvd's if the production company would like to make a few quid.

maybe we should start a fund to raise the cash to buy the rights to the things we all want to get a copy of - and the external sales could go towards the initial outlay.... hmm my simplistic monkey brain make everything eazee...

Well, if someone wants a copy, the ethical thing to do would be to send the Pirate chap some dosh to pass on to Lofty.

Let me know if I can be of assistance, he's not far from me so I could pop in and ask him very nicely if he would mind.

PLEASE be careful with this one people.....

As various other threads regarding these sorts of videos and DVD's have stated that there is an issue with breaking the law if you copy these programmes to distribute :(
Even if Lofty agrees to it, make sure that he has the exclusive rights to the programmes. If there is any other company involved ( and i suspect there will be) then it is them you would have to contact to gain permission to copy these videos.

It is a shame because there is an obvious demand market that is not been fulfilled here. I have all the tracks and world of survival that was recorded onto my hard drive from a sky box and i would happily do anyone a copy that wanted it, but as we know it can't be done.

As mentioned buying the rights yourself or between a group is a viable idea although how cheap it would be is another matter.

Sorry to be a party pooper but i don't want anyone or this forum to get into trouble from dubuious activities.

If it does get sorted......count me in for a copy :D

Hi Clem,

went to see lofty just before Christmas, on a mission to get a new copy of his survival handbook signed for a friends son, a "secret santa" gift...Lofty was up to his eyes in it at the time, had just had his kitchen taken out and was getting ready for his new one...Covered in paint he was, I will try and get to see him again soon.:eek:

Just trying to bump this up a bit.

I have the 'A' tape, but not the 'B' tape, and am desperately trying to get a copy....Whether on VHS or DVD. The 'A' tape is currently on Amazon if anyone wants that (A tape is yellow jacketed and B tape is red jacketed from memory)

I really enjoy watching Lofty, and find his humour matches mine.
