re: #19 Quoth the raven, Covfefe.

TV footage is a weird animal, though. Those guys keep archives for-fucking-ever. Generally it’s so that they can remaster it for another round of profit if the display medium changes in the future. I mean, think about the fact that Doctor Who first aired in 1963, and the BBC still had tapes laying around in archive facilities within the last decade.

It’s funny about that, though. They don’t have the video for some of those episodes, but they do have the audio. They’ve created animated versions of those episodes using the existing audio.
