Yeah, I know what you meant...No joy. Some bloke messaged me in Janaury and said he had every episode, only to not be bothered to look for them. And recently I've had two people have episode 18 but not 17, its just destiny that no-one will ever have it.

It'll turn up one day. You'll probably find two copies in the same week. :)

You reckon? I have my doubts.

One possibility, if you know anyone who works at the Beeb, there should be a copy in their archive, and they could make you a copy.

Ha, I did try that, but I don't think they have the masters, Avalon do, and I've emailed them countless times with no response. I would happily pay a cash fee, but they just don't respond.

Maybe you should hire a plane, and fly a banner over their offices? :)

Ha, I have considered it, believe me.

Still on the hunt for Series 1 Episode 17, a guy on YouTube approached me and said he may have it and would check through his tapes...this was in mid-august and I fear now that he isn't going to come through.

This is proving an exceptionally difficult task.

Hi Stevie
New idea - how about targeting fan clubs/forums for the guests who were on that episode? An avid fan of that celeb might have taped it for their collection.

I went onto a Middlesbrough FC forum to find fans of Bob Mortimer, but I can't find a dedicated Vic & Bob one anywhere, Karren Brady...well, where do I start? I could try a Birmmingham FC one, I don't think I have yet.

As for Jona Lewie, nothing.

Nice suggestion though

I had another idea which was to try and contact people who have written the Wikipedia pages, but that's virtually impossible to do.

Good luck, mate!

He's on Twitter too. (I'm not active on FB/Twitter, but I guess if you tweet something at/to him, he might retweet it, and his followers will see it?)

Might be best to pretend it's not about finding your missing episode, but that you're a massive fan who's desperate to have a copy because he's in it.

Yeah not sure about the Twitter route, too public and I can't see Jona himself engaging with me, I mean he's in it for a minute and he actual footage of his appearance is actually on YT

Fair enough. You need the FB post/message/request to be public though, so you reach his fans. Just post something in the VISITOR POSTS section on the left of the page.
