Last autumn, with help of a good friend, I was able to upgrade a bunch of episodes to much better quality files and added some of the Christmas specials to that project when they were rebroadcast during the holiday season. These include #200 - 210 and 215 - 260. (261 - 297 are already very good quality.)
Then there were 2 DVD sets released since Boxing Day that have #131 - 172. So since October over 100 episodes have been upgraded.
I'll keep an eye out for 211 - 214 airings and the next DVD release, probably near the end of the year, should have #173 - 193 so by that point just about everything should be "super"..... as that guy used to say in Reginald Perrin.
What's nice about a lot of these files is the episodes were filmed in a wider format but cropped for TV broadcast in the 90's. Now we're getting the full width of the video (although I've notice a little cropping of the height) suitable for wide screens without stretching out the picture.
