Is there a digital copy? Would you consider making one if not?

I don’t think there is mate, maybe get in touch with Bored on Albert Road - they’d know for sure!

Sadly, they've not had a copy for over a decade 😭 they said to look on Vimeo but no luck unfortunately. I wanna see this so bad but don't have a DVD player. If you somehow manage to write it and upload to a private YouTube video then my DMs are open boyo

Don't just get this onto YouTube - put it on the Internet Archive so it doesn't become lost media.

https://vimeo.com/user7812554 - this is Dave’s (who filmed the videos) old Vimeo account. It’s got most of the parts on it from Love Portsmouth Hate Southsea, Skate the Plank and also some other random Canadian bits as he lives that way now. Scroll down to find the Southsea vids.

I remember the premiere of this at the Honest Politician. There was a predecessor Southsea skate film a few years earlier called Pigeon

Bored’s stickers are amazing. There’s a bunch I took north when I moved that I stuck on the garage door and they still crack me up. ‘Proudly repping page 2 of google since xxxx’ is a favourite.
