Whilst watching “How the Brits Rocked America: Go West” on BBC4 last evening, I spotted a clip of the blue Chevy from RD Part 1 amongst the footage. Then a steady stream of Road Dreams clips started to appear throughout the programme (including a couple of clips of Elliott). ‘Elliott Bristow’s Road Dreams archive’ got a mention in the credits.
Wow – even the BBC are starting to get wise to this gem!
Maybe they’ll se fit to screen the entire series at some stage…..

Hi Elliott,

I happened across this website quite by chance and it brought back memories of Road Dreams (my taped copies long since disappeared after a couple of house moves) – and also of my own three trips to the States in 1977, 78 and 80, when I travelled across country by Greyhound bus and Amtrak. No video tapes alas (though that young woman looking over her shoulder at the camera looks awfully familiar – I’d love to know when and where that was shot).

I am a bit disturbed that your last comments on here seem to be two years old – makes me wonder if this is an active site. Are you still working on Codachrome and is there a release date any time soon?

All the best anyway – Road Dreams was magical and deserves to be available again.

Elliott,
I am ‘Nige from the Old Hangar’ mentioned above and I am happy to be of service! Looking forward to anything you may produce in the future.
Nigel.

Just looking in to see how things are going Elliott, looking forward to Codachrome whenever its ready. Just looking at the pictures on here bring a smile to my face, I instantly recognise just about every one, as do, lots of others I am sure

All the best

I wonder how many miles that old Peterbilt actually did in the end?
Maybe when you ‘retire’ from RDs you can do a “Return to Road Dreams”, revisting all the best places and some of the characters. Ahhh, to dream, eh?
Also, have you seen David Lynch on the iphone?
The resolution on the ‘touch’ must be good.
