“Plunder is the programme in which television lives in the past – its own past”

“...the amount of archival material is woefully small. I think we shall be able to run until the end of the year, but after that, unless some fresh hoard is discovered in the Regions we may have to shut
up shop, or completely revamp the format”Michell Raper
