Police Box Footage from Public Info Film

[Mark]

Nice find Chris.

Don't suppose you digitised the whole police box segment did you?

Can't say I could have recalled what SPLINK stood for, but I recall the campaign. Didn't the later ones star a Superhero guy in silver with a robot thing?

And who could forget "Charley says...." followed by "@#;weeeoowgr@~==" from the cat!

it was great fun playing hunt the police box on that dvd.

Someone recently sent me a copy of that segment as a Real Media (.rm) file which I'd be happy to forward on if you contact me.  I was going to take captures for use on the TARDIS Library site but the qualkity wasn't good enough so any more captures from the original would be appreciated.

I've got the RM one if anybody wants it.
I've also got 'Bigger on the Inside' and a Pathe News piece on park rangers using police boxes.

What's the RM one...

Mrooowwwwrrrrr!

Charley say I'm not to go off with strangers. Unless they're paying at least 50 quid...

Have found 2 other seperate police box images from the Charley say's dvd.  The mirror, signal, manoeuvre one and The highway code - padestrian crossing.

[dalethetimelord]

ooooooooooooooo, please post if possible!!

[davewho7]

I'll try. I cant even get my avatar to work.

I seem to be in the mood for putting pictures up today. Here are the images from all three public information films, just click for larger versions.

from Look, Signal, Manoeuvre:

It's so small you wouldn't really notice...


from The Highway Code - Pedestrian Crossings:

Again, a little on the small side, and in quite a scruffy state! My 1960s Dinky toy TARDIS looks like this...


Finally, from Tell The Police (1963):


Very lovely shots indeed, you can see how the phone hangs inside, also the black lettering on the glass door panel in reverse once the door is opened. I hope these shots are of use to everyone. Cheers, SH

Old thread I know (but hey, its all new to me!)...
The Look Signal Manoeuvre vid is on Youtube (as the links below are no longer working)

The box appears around 1.15 in, on the left of shot.
