As it's a script, it'll almost certainly be in Courier. Personally speaking, I'm as interested in the format of the scripts as their content (though I admit, I may be unique in this). On the Web, there are various sites that contain film and TV scripts in Adobe Acrobat format - any chance of exploring this avenue, Howell?

I could be wrong, but surely _Monkey_ was made on 625-line videotape, rather than 35mm or 16mm film? And, even if NTV did go to the inordinate expense of shooting it originally on film, you can bet your bottom dollar that the BBC version - with the dubbing and all - will have ended up on plain old videotape. You're right that we should expect as high a quality of release as possible - though I seem to remember hearing some complaints about the quality of Fabulous Film's _Water Margin_ tapes (though the few I've got seemed okay). I've not actually watched my _Monkey_ promos yet, but will do so, this week. >In this day & age, they really should be releasing them on DVD, as >alot more >collectors will have this format. Be fair - they're only just thinking about releasing cult stuff like _Trek_, _Buffy_ and _The X-Files_ *in the States* on DVD. The DVD market is growing, but still small compared to VHS, and _Monkey_ isn't in the league of those big American shows, I'm afraid to say.
