Use of 16mm
editThe article implies that Euston's use of 16mm film was an unusual TV production technique, which I feel is incorrect. 16mm film was the standard medium for on-location TV production then due the cumbersome nature and technical limitations of video cameras of this era (prior to the early/mid 1980s). Please see the article about the TV series "Triangle" for details of the diffulties using video equipment on-location in 1981.
- What you say about 16mm location filming is quite true, but I'm not sure that it contradicts or calls into question anything the article says. The words it uses are "Euston eschewed the studio videotape shooting more commonly used in British television drama at the time". That is irrefutable in both senses: i.e. not only did Euston eschew studio videotape, but studio videotape shooting was far and away the most common method of making television drama at the time. The phrase "more commonly used" allows for other methods, including location filming on 16mm, to have been used at times in such production - again, clearly true - while still making plain that a majority of productions or perhaps the majority of the material produced for those productions (or both), were recorded in the studio on videotape. Again, irrefutably true. Simon Coward (talk) 14:27, 17 January 2019 (UTC)
