Nice. Thanks for sharing!

We'll probably have to do three passes to correct the colors:

1. Custom curves for each reel. That is, a single setting to separately bring each entire reel to an acceptable state; e.g., reel01.GiCoCu(...)

2. A shot-by-shot color-match against ww12345's restored BBC broadcast using the N-Dimensional PDF Transfer MATLAB function. Question: How fast does this work on your machine?

3. Shot-by-shot manual tweaks by an experienced colorist with some good references.

#1 seems simple enough and despite being long and tedious, #2 seems simple enough as well. Who can we find to tackle #3?
