This series shows how Talking Pictures TV finds and restores old films, TV shows, etc. This is important and interesting work but for me it is spoilt by Mike Read and his inane, rambling, repetitive and occasionally illinformed comments - I find myself watching it with the sound turned down! New presenter/interviewer or a script that he diligently sticks to please! TPTV is an absolute gem of a channel for film and social history buffs.
