Video of Sydney

[mammamedley]

I am looking to buy a video of all the swimming in Sydney. Does anyone have any ideas?
NBC do one but they are only available in USA.
Many thanks

I would love a good edited vidoe of the swimming too. I had some recorded from BBC and took video camera footage when I was there but a nice concise version of all the finals and records would be lovely. So tell me too if anyone knows.
Cheers

Well just to make you jealous, I have *all* the BBC's coverage on tape. I was hoping to find time to edit bits to hand out to my swimmers; I might even get around to it at some point.

If I do, I'll let you all know and you can make requests ;-)

BigFish I'm jealous!
I started off taping everything in sight on the swimming. Easy as no other sports covered in the first few days. Then it got harder as the Beeb switched around to cycling, etc.
I've repeatedly watched the tape where 5 World Records were swum in 4 events - brilliant!. The Mens 4 x 100 Relay is stil an incredible memory.

I agree, I must have watched it a dozen times ;-) The coverage from the later stages is mixed in with cycling rowing etc, but it's all there.

I do intend to learn how to edit videos properly at some point, but I have a final degree year to finish first. My only regret is that I taped it all on long play rather than splashing out on a few more tapes :-(
