T-Room FAQ


These are some of the more commonly asked questions about this site - not many at the moment, but the list will be updated.

 

i) You say that the series is about to be released by Fremantle as a digital download to own/rent. What does this mean? How will I pay for it? What format will it be? What exactly do you know about the release of the T-Bag series?
Whoa! Hold your horses! I never siad anything about the series being "About to be released". At the moment, Fremantle is digitising and clearing the rights to the series. The rights to T-Bag are incredibly complicated since it was produced at a time when TV companies were bad at exploiting their products. There are therefore few or no provisions for releasing it in a way that will ensure that everyone involved gets their dues. Sorting out the rights may therefore take many months since it is a legal process and needs a lot of negotiation.

The initial release of the series according to Lee will be as a digital download to own or rent. Digital downloads are files that are downloaded and viewed on your computer. Whether or not you can burn this file to DVD depends on the format of the file (which I have no idead about), and furthermore on whether you will be allowed to do this legally. Digital download to rent (as far as other websites go) may be a file that becomes inaccessible after a certain time period or after a certain number fo viewings.

As far as paying for it is concerned, I have no idea. I should imagine that you would end up paying Fremantle online with your credit or debit card.

All that I know about the release will be posted on the Site. I know nothing more than what is up there, so I can tell you no more than that.

 

ii) Where can I lay my hands on T-Bag videos?
Loads and loads of people have asked this question! There was only ever one T-Bag video released - "T-Bag and the Pearls of Wisdom". This video is now all but extinct. Blackstar.co.uk have a video hunt service, so if you want to find it, try going there. Also, the video often shows up on Ebay, so it may be worth going there, but be prepared to pay through the nose...

iii) Will you copy me XYZ series of T-Bag?
I used to do copies of T-Bag, but now I don't. When you do something for nothing, people start to take advantage of you and prey on your good nature, so I put a stop to it. I will certainly not copy the T-Bag series for any price either, because I do not believe in profiting from somebody else's work. I'm afraid that you will have to look elsewhere!

iv) Why have you put the name of the Site on all the images?

I have invested a lot of time and effort in creating this site, and most of the images were generated by me at great cost of both time and money. I have noticed that more T-Bag sites are popping up around the place just lately, and, whilst I welcome this, I am just trying to protect my own site from being hijacked, and that the material within remains original. Hopefully, this will prevent a string of identical T-Bag sites springing up, as this sometimes happens with other programmes where images are limited. Also, it prevents parasitism of my Website by the more unscrupulous Webmasters who may want to pass the images off as their own and steal bandwidth from my site by linking directly to the images from theirs.

Some images on the site are not "stamped". Such images were not generated by me, but have been taken from elsewhere.

v) Can you give me <cast or crew member's> home contact details?

The answer to this is "DEFINITELY NOT!!!!!". The members of the cast or crew that I have come into contact with have been kind enough to entrust me with their contact details, and I am certainly not going to give them out to any potential raging psychopath that comes along. If you want to contact one of the cast members, then I suggest that you go through the proper channels (i.e. the television company, their agent, etc.).
