Our Story

For over a decade, we have dedicated ourselves to understanding the history of television programming, one show at a time.

How We Started

The idea began in a university library. While researching British sitcoms from the 1970s, our founder discovered that entire seasons of beloved programmes existed only as fading references in dusty catalogues. No footage. No scripts. Just memory.

That realisation sparked a question: if we do not document television history now, who will? The answer became our purpose.

What Drives Us

Television is more than entertainment. It reflects societal values, political shifts, and cultural evolution. A news broadcast from 1963 holds as much historical significance as a newspaper from that era. A variety show from 1982 offers insight into the humour and sensibilities of its time.

We approach every project with the understanding that television archives are living documents. They deserve rigorous research, thoughtful preservation, and accessible documentation.

Our Approach

We work with archivists, researchers, production companies, and cultural institutions to provide thorough documentation services. Our methodology combines historical research with contemporary digital preservation techniques.

Each service we offer is built on extensive knowledge of broadcast history, archival science, and media studies. We do not simply catalogue shows. We contextualise them.

Why This Matters

Television history is disappearing. Tapes are lost. Formats become unreadable. Without intervention, future generations will lack access to significant cultural artifacts. Our work aims to slow that loss.

Whether you are researching a specific programme, documenting a network's broadcast history, or seeking preservation guidance, we are here to help ensure that television's past remains accessible for the future.
