Hello Folks and a Question About the new Compendiums

[Adrian Gregg]

Does anyone have a track listing of the New Compendium box sets 10-13? I'm going to buy the things as not to do so would be a terrible crime (plus would lose my winning streak as buying every goon release since 1981), but in the meantime i used a free amazon audible trial to hear them but I cant figure out what is on the series 1-4 boxet, I know the series 2 shows are there and a couple of series 4, but I thought there was more S4 shows, I mean ive got more S4 shows on tape (traded in the 90's) and I know they are not missing. are they due for box set 14?. On Audible you get no track listing at all, everything is Chapters, If you are lucky to get a PDF of the booklets its always the first one not the all important second one.

So I have no idea whats on 11,12,13 I mean apart from the obvious shows etc. Oh, I googled the crap out of this before coming here, the appears to be nothing online showing a track-list at all. How Weird is that.

Oh and scrips, I own the first 7 sets and just pulled all PDF scrips from them 6 in total and 2 of them fake typed up things not real scripts, the rest, one is Pat Dixons prob for orig Editing for Home Service Bdcast, the others seem to be "As Broadcast" versuions with the lines not read 'lined 'out, Is there any more of these, would love to see more scripts as written rather than as Bdcast, prob my next thing now Ive heard all the existing shows (after a 40 year wait!)

Will post a Obligatory "Been a Fan Since the 80s" post soon.

Ps, Can we start a Religion in honor of TK?

Oh the new sets are fantastic, I stopped getting them after set 7 due to moving to a new flat that takes most of my pay! Will finish them and the Horne ones, Hancock etc, wonder where "take it from here" is, I know of plenty of TS versions floating about.

Just heard the "Press photos with A.E. Matthews" (from one of the 8th series Part 2 compendium) My title as I don't know what it should be called (thanks Audible) Now I have seen just about every photo of the Goons, scoured photo libaries in person and recently (last 25 years) online and have never ever seen any photos of the Goons with A.E Mathews? what gives.
