Does anyone know where I can lay my hands on the World's Greatest Hoaxes program about the PG film that aired on FOX and the BBC X-Creatures show, also on the PG film? I've searched my usual spots with no luck. If someone has them on video and would dupe them for me, I'd be happy to pay any costs...

Thanks!

Here is a relavent critique of said production that I thought I would pass along!

World's Greatest Hoaxes!

This might help!

IMD (Internet Movies Database)

Thanks, GC. I have Lloyd Pye's link (that thing is all over the web in one form or another!), but never thought of the IMDB. I'm hoping to be able to see them...

bip - i can send you a dvd of WGH:SFR if you like.

But, if anyone has the BBC's X-Creatures, I'd like a copy if possible

I would like! Let me know the cost and I'll reimburse you next time I see you (in beer or any other form of tender you like).

can you do PAL, or should I convert it to NTSC (Never Twice the Same Colour) ?

Never the same twice, please!

And I've just sent an email to the X-Creatures presenter - see if he can get a copy for you.

Hi Paul/bipto,

Don't know if you remember me. I doubt it very much but I was here for a short while last year. Haven't had computer access for almost a year (Don't ask. It's a long and stupid story) but now I've got it back and I've sure missed a hell of a lot of goings on. It's taken me days to wade through all this stuff and I haven't had the b*lls to reply to anything yet. It took me a long time to participate in the first place all that time ago.

Anyway, I have X-Creatures on self taped video. I've definately got the Bigfoot episode and I'm sure somewhere that I have the Yeti one too.

I should have binned the 'Packham Bigfoot' episode right after the first viewing (sheesh, his orange B/F looks just like a Tangoman) but I did cling onto it for the occassional chuckle. Haven't watched it in ages. I'll dig it out and I'm more than happy to post it to you Paul so that you can copy it and maybe send a copy to bipto. It would be no problem and it would be my pleasure gentlemen.

Nice to be back. All you guys and girls here are just great.

Hey look, it's Lyndon! Welcome back!!

Well thank you Stacy but I'm sure you don't remember me. I guess lots of people come and go here. I was just a wisp in the breeze.


Oh, and I've just remembered that I also have the hour long Channel Four production entitled 'Bigfoot Monster Mystery' from their 'To The Ends Of The Earth' series. This is one of the best I've seen. It follows English wildlife cameraman John Waters in his quest to find the truth. Henry Franzoni, Larry Lund and Henner Fahrenbach all make appearances. As per usual, the attempt to recreate a walking Bigfoot fail miserably as they knew it would.

It's from about 1998.

Lyndon - I've just PM'ed you. I have the Channel 4 documentary on DVD - it was an interesting attempt to film a fake bigfoot - I especially enjoyed the end credits where the man in the suit is sitting against a tree with his mask off having a smoke !

check your inbox and lets get a copy of the X-Creatures tape to me so I can convert it to DVD for Bipto.

Haha, yes I thought that guy having a smoke with the mask off looked pretty bizarre. He kind of looks like my uncle (without the hairy legs and body that is).

Got your PM thanks.

Hmmm, I think when bipto sees X-Creatures you'll have to restrain him. Even now I still have an uncontrollable urge to pull Chris Packham's ears off and feed them to the ducks.

I missed this until just now! Thanks, Paul!

[edit] And now I've read the rest of the thread. Welcome back, Lyndon, and thanks to you as well! You guys are doing me a great favor.

No problem bipto. I'll send the video to Paul asap.
