Barlow and Watt on youtube

[spyglass]

Hi all,
Noticed today that all six episodes of the Barlow and Watt TV series is now on youtube.
I had a quick sneaky view whilst at work and have to say how impressed I was in what I glimpsed, especially the quality.
But could have sworn that it was originally in colour.

Well spotted old chap I've had a quick glance and the episodes look superb old Joe sickrets on one so no doubt we are in for a bit of the royal conspiracy .

I also spotted them doing a tour of Mitre Sq and Bucks row at the beginning of episode six.....fantastic.
Can't wait to settle down for a good night's viewing.

I suggest you copy the programs because this particular series often winds up being removed...or, one episode is removed.

If you are all thumbs at downloading/saving programs from the Web...while there are several that I use on JTRForums, the Ummy Video Downloader ( Particularly good if you use Google Chrome as your primary browser ) is very good. Safe too.

Thanks for the info.
Can one actually down load and save youtube material?
Certainly tried before and failed.

[Howard Brown]

Absolutely. Freecorder7 from Applian Technologies is one method....its free for Windows users....have had a version of it for 8 years.

As I said, I think Ummy will work very well if you intend to download and save the programs. Its my primary tool for packratting videos.

[spyglass]

Will check it out.
Once again many thanks.

[Howard Brown]

My pleasure.
I suggest the Ummy tool before Freecorder's.

Hi,
Is my memory playing tricks , or has the nuns account been edited out of the episodes..the one who claimed when she was a novice, she heard a elderly nun say that 'If it were not for the Kelly woman , none of the murders would have happened..?

Spyglass,
I find 4k downloader good,and for stitching episodes(or short pieces of video) into a continuos film, I use Freemake video recorder.
Regards.

[GUT]

Hi Richard

That was in another Ripper documentary a few years later.

Hard to imagine in these days of 500 TV channels but for the sake of information for youngsters and non-Brits, the fictional detective duo of Barlow and Watt had starred in two smash hit police dramas (Z Cars and Softly Softly) which were regularly watched by 80% the UK population then.

That said, this series was excellent for its time.
