Hey everyone, this is my first attempt at something like this so please do excuse any mistakes or errors made in this upload :)
This TV broadcast was recently shown on Sky Arts last Friday and thanks to que.123 it was recorded. The program was recorded in XP mode (Panasonic) and the audio was recorded onto the LPCM format to prevent further compression.
This is a very interesting broadcast, firstly and most sadlyis that it is in Mono, secondly it appears to be the 1983 53 minute broadcast as many songs are cut or fade into other songs but there are 1996 credits and the Eagle Rock logo appearing at the end of the broadcast. So I'm not entirely sure what broadcast this is but someone out there will know :P
Tracklisting:
0) TV Broadcast Beginning
1) Flash (Intro Tape)
2) The Hero
3) We Will Rock You (Fast)

Enjoy!!
As far as I'm aware this is a TV edit put together by Eagle Vision in 1996. It contains a different track listing to the other short (51 minute) TV edit shown on Channel 4 in the UK in 1992. The Original and longer "Tube" TV edit shown only once on Channel 4 in January 1983 had additional tracks as well as pre-concert footage and interviews. All three of these TV edits were broadcast in mono but without the sound fixes. There is also a possibility that the concert was broadcast on FM radio (in stereo) at some point.
I remember that MCM (a music French TV channel) broadcasted Milton Keynes in 1996 for the 5-year birthday since Freddie Mercury's death. Sunday 24th November 1996 was a Queen Day on this channel: Videoclips, small documentaries. I remember that they were supposed to broadcast Wembley but they changed at the last minute and broadcasted Milton Keynes. I remember I recorded it on a VHS but I think this one is long gone. No clue which version it was. All I remember is that the bad crack on Freddie's voice on FBG was here.

Looking at Eagle Vision site, Eagle Rock Entertainement was founded in 1997, so it's impossible that they've put that together in 1996. The Eagle Vision logo in this edit is there because they have the rights in this moment in time.
Fair point, but where does the 1996 date come into it then? Also it would be great if somebody could provide some real evidence to prove whether or not there ever was a stereo TV edit broadcast.

Thank you for the sharing!
However it seems to be an error in rar-file placed on MEGA.
Please try my original link posted over in this thread: link
It is not in RAR format, maybe Chinwonder2 converted it to RAR to make the download smaller.
Heya, are you sure the RAR file doesn't work, what error does it give you?
This download is completely different to what que originally shared, what I did was extract the audio from his DVD, split the tracks and then archived them into the .rar file. :)

Yeah, the WinRAR delivers the error that the archive is corrupted.
BTW I tried to download it via Chrome, Firefox - directly and via importation to my mega clouddrive.

Seems to work fine for me, let me try again anyway. :P
The same.
Interesting thing: the screenshot of archive you attached reflects that the size of archive is 608,664,869 bytes.
But on MEGA it has only 438.3 MB
I guess you are asking if there is a chance that SOMEBODY ELSE will share it in HD, because this one is DVD recorded.
Well, considering the combined probabilities, if such a record exists, if the owner is reading your request, and if he is willing to share it, i would say the probability of occurrence is less than 0.0001.
As for HD upscaled material, it's like seeing Goofy at Disneyland. Funny, but he is still a man in a suit.
