I would like to see TV-ARK introduce a comments section, much like YouTube. It would make it a lot more interactive.


Well it's an idea being worked on behind the scenes, it was actually on the cards back when we launched the flash player but we decided against it at the time, mainly because moving away from flash was the priority.

Maybe its just me who felt revulsion at the idea of YouTube-like commenting. Still, it's a shame to be seeing TV Ark just having in the few years broke from the bonds of the old world of RealVideo only to find tech has once again shooed them off to a newer format.

Problem: Why can't I get to the site when I just enter "tv-ark.org.uk"? Why do I always have to include "www" every time?

Server error? 403 forbidden? That's not what I expected to see. That is odd. Confused

Ignorant rubbish. It's just a server configuration issue.

Somewhere along the line it should be possible to implicitly state that www.tv-ark.org.uk is synonymous with tv-ark.org.uk. Some servers are very strict about this.

I think TV ark need to do an Appeal, it make it more wider know what is still missing from the collection, I have spoken to a few people who never released there come across something which is not around at this moment.....

That's a great exclusive update today with the 1981 globe. The high quality video is superb.
