Keep checking YouTube.

Some eager beavers seem to put everything on there, eventually.

With longer programmes, and films, you can watch it so you don't need to search for the next epidode. It just seamlessly plays automatically.

I recently watched a whole series this way, that hadn't been broadcast in the U.K.

I've got friends who live in Europe who can watch things like the B.B.C. digital channels, so it is possible.
Though the legality is probably questionable.

:rolleyes:

According to a letter/comment in the Clitheroe Advertiser, attempts have been made to redress this miscarriage of justice, by requesting a Royal Pardon for those hanged as witches.

LETTER: Pendle Witches - the fact and fiction - Letters to the Editor - Clitheroe Advertiser and Times

Nutters everywhere must have been bitterly disappointed, when this was denied.

Just watched the films - very enjoyable. I hadn't heard the "Old Pendle" song since primary school days and still remembered all the words..
As to the ghost -made me chuckle. My cat jumped at the ghostly cackling at the end though, obviously didn't remind her of my tinkling laugh!

...interesting use of an old surname:rolleyes:

yes there was all sorts going on in there - Protestant and Catholic politics, blackmail, slander and so on and a big dose of damned Ignorance and Stupidity which I am afraid is still a major element in most people in society today!

There are some people I know that could do the same thing now as they believe so strongly that some people are wrong or wicked enough for what ever reasons!:cool:
