VidUKon pimp/VJ'ing for Vid Show

[charmax]

I haven't pimped this yet so I am now pimping it mightily! VidUKon is a brand new Vidding con being held in the UK and set up by the fantastic halcyon_shift. It will run from the 24th Oct to the 26th Oct in Milton Keynes and will have everything from panels, vidshows tea and cakes. It should be a great weekend to meet all your fannish friends to talk/watch vids. I won't be going myself this year, unfortunately, but I am seriously hoping there will be enough numbers to make it viable for next as I really want to go. So this is where I pimp - you all need to go sign up! It'll be fun! Come take a holiday in Britain!

As I'm not going this year I thought I'd make myself useful in another way so I offered to VJ the "Made In The UK" Vid show.
"Doctor Who, Torchwood, Queer as Folk etc.
UK shows rock ! "

I have a fair idea of some of the vids I'd like to include but I am also looking for suggestions in case I've missed that perfect vid for this show. If you have any suggestions please comment away. I'm particularly interested in any vids for lesser known shows. I'd like a good mix. :)

You already mentioned Hustle, which was on my list of less-frequently-vidded shows (i only know of Zen's and Killa's vids).

And The Professionals, which while a classic slash fandom still has new vids and remasters of old vids.

melina123 made a Robin of Sherwood vid.

QAF UK (killa, butterfly, ob24).

Donald Strachey mysteries? I saw a vid rec for that recently.

MI5 / Spooks

Hitchhiker? I think there is at least one older vid for this.

I was trying to think who it was that made the Robin of Sherwood vid! Thanks for reminding me. QAF UK will most likely be on the list. I haven't seen any vids for the last 3, do you have any specific recs?

Blakes 7: True Believer and Comedy Tonight by mediacannibals [sandy, rache, gwyn, jo etc.]

Morgaine had some B7 vids as well, but her site is down.

Mary van Deusen has done a lot of B7 vids: http://www.iment.com/maida/tv/songvids/b7song.htm#bangkok

Donald Strachey is not British, sorry!

I could *swear* that I've seen vid recs for Mi5/Spooks but there are none listed in the veni_vidi_vids delicious account. (Maybe I've just seen people wishing for MI5 vids?)

Judy (aka JAWS?) has a vid for The Prisoner to Hotel California, which I have on DVD. I can rip it for you if you want to see it.

I just found that Deejay made an RoS vid as well. I'm not sure if I have access to that. Hmmm.

Oh! I finaly found the Hitchiker vid. It's called Good Run of Bad Luck by Angel, and it's on the 2004 VVC DVD set, for the challenge show.

Sorry for the delay, I've been writing this comment on and off for a few days. My brain is slow sometimes!

...and I found that MI5/Spooks vid! It's by Barkley, to Mother by Pink Floyd.

I've checked that one out already. Thanks! :)

Oh awesome. So many to check out! I have found a good Spooks vid made by fahrbotdrusilla but I could have sworn there were a ton more. Hmmm.

I have a pretty good mixture of vids to work with now but if any of the above vids turn out to be a better fit then I'll sub them in. It's a real shame the running time is so short because when it comes to it, you have to exclude so many good vids.
