This short interview with Shane from NottsTV has some glimpses of some rarely seen short films from Shane's back catalogue! nottstv.com/programmes/news/?videoId=4915741725001Shane made a rare compilation disc years ago for some of us fans, and few of the glimpses seen in this interview are recognisable... like The Datsun Connection, Zombie Squad, and King of the Gypsies (pre-Channel4 version)... but there's plenty of other clips that are rarer than rare! One where it looks like Paddy is playing a paper-boy? Some early Le Donk stuff? Very interesting to hear that Shane has been remastering some of his old shorts to preserve them on newer formats. Will there ever be a comprehensive release I wonder? I know that Shane has mentioned before that some of his earliest shorts featured uncleared music, so it would be very expensive (or impossible) to release those. Fingers crossed though. And if a collection does get a release at some point.. please don't skimp on the commentaries!! haha

Tantalising glimpses indeed!
Shane could replace the music with something less expensive. Difficult to do artistically I know but doable. Aren't there issues too with getting okays from the people involved?
I joined the forum just too late and missed the opportunity to win one of those discs. I'm sure I will see Shane's ultra-rare shorts before I do a die!
