Hi,
It may be of interest to your readers that a complete set of 35mm prints (including previously lost episodes) of The Errol Flynn Theatre have been discovered. Details here:
Unfortunately, one of those involved with the discovery has commented that they are unlikely to see release as the rights holders cannot be traced.

Thank you for those details, Michael! Can’t wait to see all those treasures, which I’d bet the farm will be released – one way or another!
Here’s some very recent media coverage out of Belfast on this discovery:
m.u.tv…
BTW, Michael, are you the great Rafael Sabatini historian?!
GREAT news! There are lots of new Errol discoveries lately.Hopefully we will get to see them all soon.
Yes, Lollie! It’s gonna be great to see all these in high quality!

Great link & photo,thanks Tim.
What a fun series The EF Theatre is,Errol introducing the episodes is terrific too,he’s so funny. :)
So what are the odds we’ll see a DVD release? I’m still hoping to track down “The 1,000th Night of Don Juan.”
It is… or was? available on DVD, I have it…
It was an option on iOffer at one point, and I (apparently foolishly) passed on that for another collection at the time, and now I can’t seem to track that one down.
Yes, that was it…
