    I thought they ran from somebody's home or something? They had a series on
    last night that I remember from my childhood days, called Human Jungle.
    Really strange to hear it after so long.

    Nothing so exotic as a home. The comments usually refer to a garden
    shed! Well, that's being unkind. It's a family business run by a few enthusiasts. There's a lot more information on the wiki page at <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talking_Pictures_TV>.

    It has the classic series from the 60s, 70s, and 80s like "Rumpole of
    the Bailey" and "Public Eye".

    It seems to be working well now:

    Not sure I'd say "well". It has a big bucketful of bitmap images. A simple
    text list with smaller images would be easier and quicker to use.

    But the content is interesting. In the past I've found a number of old
    films from TPTV worth a watch.

    Yes agree always worth keeping an eye on - no game shows or 'Reality'
    crap.
    I find it very easy to slip back into B&W or 4:3 mode when needed! C+
