I have just come across some old VHS tapes of this series - would anyone be interested in seeing them again?

I have started to capture the episodes, and am starting to make a DVD of them for myself - If there is enough interest I will create a “proper” DVD with menu’s etc.
Does anybody have or know of any episodes not lited above? I believe these were recorded from BBC2 in 93-94.
