Plus, here's today's computer tip from your editor: When you go to delete a file, make sure you know where your cursor is sitting. I tried to delete an unused file in my "images" folder and about half a second too late, I realized that I'd deleted the entire folder! (Duh...) I watched the TBE page I was working on fade to black and white, with big, empty boxes where the graphics had been. Yikes, cold sweat, panic...then I remembered that I'd backed up most of the graphics onto a CD, and the others were on my computer. So, I was able to recreate the folder. Whew! So, pay attention to that cursor, and back up, back up, back up those files, folks! :)

14
March 2007 - I was able to view The Prodigal Daughter and will write a
review of this wonderfully acted play for TBE shortly. In the meantime,
here's a sneak preview:
28 February 2007 - Yet another rare JB TV classic is discovered--and it's already on DVD! But, you may have to look carefully for it. The Prodigal Daughter, a 1975 British TV play co-starring JB as "Father Daley", is included as an extra on the special edition DVD of the 1941 film Cottage to Let, starring Leslie Banks and Alastair Sim. (Sim also appears in The Prodigal Daughter.) Alas, though, this is one treat that only British Brettfans may be able to savour--the DVD is in Region 2 format, which means it's not coded for North American viewing, unless you have an "all region" player, or your computer is equipped to play DVDs. Well, if you live across the pond, the DVD can be found on Amazon.co.uk, Movie Mail and probably on similar UK sites as well. Just be sure to search on Cottage to Let, or it probably won't come up in the results. (THANK YOU, Nick D., for providing this info! :->) And, of course, don't forget to try Ebay, too.
27 February 2007 - Good news--a JB TV classic is
coming to DVD! More info on JBTV: The Classics
page! (Scroll down once you get there.)
