I recorded this for my own purposes, but thought some of you might like a copy as the quality is quite nice.
This broadcast was from July 1st with John Peel presenting.
PAL MKV 1920 x 1080 link

I also uploaded to YouTube the TOTP premiere from June 17th with Simon Bates presenting, but it's the same Queen performance.
Thanks Kurgan, when I see gems like these, I always wonder what stops Queen Productions from releasing GH I & II on Blu ray with the outtakes and other extras...
Well, thank you for such an effort as always, but I have to tell you that WT features the same video from YT, with Simon Bates introducing. I can only see the snapshot with J.P.
...please take a look here.

I think I know what happened.
Perhaps you downloaded before I amended the link in post #1
Try it again.
WATC looks to be the same as my copy from this thread: link

Thanks for the uploads Kurgan, have you recorded any other TOTP appearances? Even playbacks of the standard promo videos would probably be an improvement over the DVD versions.
I have this thing about on screen logos and graphics.
I also have some 960 x 540 PAL mkv files of the 1982 appearances which have the BBC logo in the border area (see below).
I was thinking they could be cut to 4:3, thus losing the logo, or perhaps even left as 16:9 but blacking out the logo entirely.
What do you think? link
I think it's possible to set cropping preferences on mkv files without re-encoding. Might not work in all players and the picture will still be there but will give essentially the same result.
You could even try using the low resolution source to mask the logo in the HD recording. If you shrink it back down to standard definition afterwards it could be almost unnoticeable.

Thanks for the info.
I tried a little experiment using Handbrake: link
