The Adventure Game is one of those classics of British TV that virtually everyone of a certain age remembers. As with many shows that virtually everyone of a certain age remembers, the BBC wiped quite a few of the episodes or simply lost them.
A recent DVD release contained all the episodes that were thought to still survive. But lo and behold! Look what happened this very morn! Someone uploaded an entire missing episode to YouTube!
YouTube and the Beeb being what they are, I imagine it’ll disappear quite quickly, so watch it while you can…

I’m Rob Buckley, a journalist who writes for UK media magazines that most people have never heard of although you might have heard me on the podcast Lockdown Land or Radio 5 Live’s Saturday Edition or Afternoon Edition. I’ve edited Dreamwatch, Sprocket and Cambridge Film Festival Daily; been technical editor for TV producers magazine Televisual; reviewed films for the short-lived newspaper Cambridge Insider; written features for the even shorter-lived newspaper Soho Independent; and was regularly sarcastic about television on the blink-and-you-missed-it “web site for urban hedonists” The Tribe. Since going freelance, I've contributed to the likes of Broadcast, Total Content + Media, Action TV, Off The Telly, Action Network, TV Scoop and The Custard TV.
