I really really wish you the best of luck with this project. The original programmes were wonderful and I can't wait for my DVD and the arrival of Codachrome.

Just placed my order for the DVD and soundtrack combo and I can't wait for them to arrive! Can it really be 19 years since Road Dreams was on Ch4? Seems incredible how time flies past, but the memory of how good the series was lingers on. Just listening to some of the sound clips from the CD gave me goose bumps and a huge smile - Dinosaur Gas for example! I had video recorded them back in '89 but the tapes just didn't survive so I can't wait to be reacquainted with those amazing images and music. Pure gold. Hi Elliot. Just placed my order for the DVD and soundtrack combo and I can’t wait for them to arrive!

I've just placed my order for your DVD as a Christmas present for my wife. She has been banging on about how wonderful your series of short travelogues was on Channel 4 back in distant memory...and before the years of Big Brother. Maybe this will keep her quiet until I get her the accompanying T-shirt. Who knows? Maybe I'll have a look myself - it does look worth a watch Hi Elliott.

I'm really excited to discover that you are working on this, and very much looking forward to it. Thanks!

My late father once descibed RD's as Alastair Cooke meets "The Waltons" on "The Old Grey Whistle Test" ... In a world of increasing monoculture and mediocrity; I for one, look forward to wholeheartedly supporting this seemingly Don Quixot of an enterprize!! Thank you for, yet again, sharing your dreams with 'us' Elliott ... Wonderful stuff – for years I thought I would never see the utterly fascinating genius of “Road Dreams”.
