Hi all

Is anyone else still waiting for their footage from September Films/DCD Media?

I was told that all footage from the show (unaired) would be released after the broadcast of the show. This was months ago and they have stone walled every attemp to contact them and get information.

Can you let me know if you filmed for the show but DIDN'T get aired and have received your footage please

As information has been released that a Christmas special will be aired, technically, the show has not yet ended, which could explain the lack of footage at this point in time.

I was talking to a producer a couple of weeks ago and was told that the main tv channels will not allow to be released for anything for five years after the showing unless you have a special deal with them. I don't know if this covers thw footage you were talking about.

I have never known a production company to release footage. I have known them to promise, but that is just to get your co-operation. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news. You are unlikely to ever get it.
Unless you signed some soft of contract or agreement on the matter, they will ignore you and stonewall you until you go away. It is a lesson learnt.

Though I do know Morgan and West got their unaired footage from the pilot show, so you never know!

On YouTube I saw footage from the show posted by David Masters which he said was unaired for time and editing reasons.
Might be worth asking him how he got hold of it.

I have known people get footage from shows before.

I would love to be wrong on this one. If someone has got footage, keep the pressure on.

You might not be... there is a shocking number of people in TV, the press, events and so on who have absolutely NO qualms in promising performers something they have no intention of delivering.

I do not understand that mindset at all.

I just take David's posting of the footage on YouTube to be a potential glimmer if he can tell the OP how he got it.
