The original 'Making Of...' 1977

[TC-14]

Apologies, as I should imagine this request has been posted before, but a search on this forum and also on YouTube has brought up nothing as far as I can see

Does anyone have a link or a copy that I can purchase of the original 'The Making Of Star Wars' that was screened on TV in 1977, possibly 1978? The excitement of seeing it listed in the TV Times way back then I can still recall now... waiting for that Saturday to come around seemed to take forever. I can remember placing a tape recorder on a chair next to the TV speaker so that I got an audio copy of the show (along with the dog barking in the background, and me telling the rest of the family to 'shush' (it was years later before we got a Betamax video recorder) :lol:

Sadly, that old C60 cassette is long gone, unfortunately.

Any help/pointers would be very much appreciated!

Ah, that's the one thanks to the both of you- amazing to see it again after all these years :shock:

Its also on the 9 disc Blu Ray set alongside some similar documentaries that were made around the time of all three films. Well worth parting with £50 in my opinion!
