| I'm on Freeview and get Talking Pictures, on channel 81. But it does vary according to tuner spec and what your local transmitter will do - I have two Freeview boxes, and one will happily receive a Manchester-based local TV channel where the other will not. They're on the same aerial cable, piggy-backed one to the next. |

| You must search on Youtube because there’s an amazing amount of car stuff and old movies on there. |

I love the ‘Talking Pictures’ channel....so many good films....one of my favourites is ‘The Girl in the Picture’ which I have now bought on dvd as one of the main cars is a black Ford Popular 103.....
I know...it’s sad, but.. I just can’t help myself ☺️☺️😄😄 |

| I am developing an obsession to note registrations and check the DVLA site to see if they exist. Is there anything I can take for this malady please? |

It's addictive....I do the same when folk post up old B&W photos.......
Thus far, I have only found one which still 'exists' on DVLA records....a mini, of all things.

Talking Pictures TV?
A marvellous channel indeed.
I caught the B&W movie 'For Those in Peril', 1944, the other day [it's on again, 0900-something, Easter Sunday]......about wartime air/sea rescue....has some marvellous [real time] footage of a Supermarine Walrus taking off, and flying around...

Hi Alastair, if you google TPTV you will find a daily running sheet with times of which pix they will be transmitting, cheers,JD
