Chris Posted December 14, 2004 Report Share Posted December 14, 2004 Ken Do you know who filmed at Rye House in the late 80's and early 90's before they closed and do you reckon there is any chance of getting some copies of some matches?

Plus details from the Birmingham indoor meeting, same time needed.Thanks <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Ken, Italy toured the UK in 1980 and 1981 - not 1979. They rode at Canterbury on both tours. They didn't ride at Ellesmere Port on either tour! Schedule was - 1980 - Canterbury, Mildenhall, Crayford (rained off), Long Eaton, Oxford. 1981 - Canterbury, Wolverhampton, Exeter, Milton Keynes, Oxford. The Birmingham Indoor at the NEC was 1980 (Jan 17,18,19). But they also held meetings in 1984. I can probably give you heat details on any of these meetings - let me know which ones you want.

tape2tapevideo Posted January 7, 2005 Author Report Share Posted January 7, 2005 They I was last night speedway on the box (my box) Crayford v Rye House, what a match and good old mudlarky did his bit!, also saw Crayford win the 4's at Peterborough, great interview with Les Rumsey on that. anyway for those interested, I have made a copy on dvd, with other Rye House stuff too from the 80's. Copies can be sent out but donations start at £8 and cheques must be made out to Matt Read. If we can help him, we will.! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Jim Blanchard Posted February 9, 2005 Report Share Posted February 9, 2005 (edited) Just received my copy of 'Days gone by vol 8. Thanks Ken. What memories. The footage from Norwich of GB V. Australasia, Norwich v. New Cross, Belle Vue, Russia etc. Ove is going to love it, I'm sure. Of course for me to see Peter Craven walking about in the pits talking to other riders etc was lovely. (brought a lump to my throat, I can tell you..) Sorry, that I somehow dropped a bit of my cine footage of the Olympic into the Belle Vue v. Wimbledon bit. . Good to see that again though: Ronnie v. Ivan. Brilliant. Well recommended. Edited February 9, 2005 by Jim Blanchard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

keepturningleft Posted February 25, 2005 Report Share Posted February 25, 2005 Ta for that info. Just as a matter of interest, is it possible to obtain footage from the BBC who must have tons of archived speedway. I know a lot of 70's World Of Sport footage cropped up a few years ago on the Aces of Yesteryear series. Is it question of money, copyright, or will the BBC not release any material full stop?

tape2tapevideo Posted February 28, 2005 Author Report Share Posted February 28, 2005 (edited) The BBC will tell you they haven't kept it, but they do in fact have it, I have a few (very few) old Will Internationales but poor quality to these days. Would myself love to see King Cinder once more!. Funny really was talking to Paul Bonner from the old KM video's on Saturday, he was saying that someone told him, the Days Gone By series had his footage from KM, but I am pleased to say they DON'T, copyright is a very touchy subject and it's not worth it, Days Gone By have nothing but pure old cine film from the lofts of fans around the country, most never ever even seen before other than by the owners.

rami Posted February 28, 2005 Report Share Posted February 28, 2005 Funny really was talking to Paul Bonner from the old KM video's What happened to KM videos are they no more? Can there back catalogue still be purchased or do they no longer hold the originals? i would imagine they have some really good stuff from early 80's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are still a few around, but amazing really how quality has changed compared with todays productions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
