Back in the 80's I worked on several TV shows about computers and I see that some episodes and excerpts of episodes are becoming available on the Web, specifically Bits and Bytes and The Academy (with Jim Butterfield also involved in both of them).
Of course I'm biased, but I think that aside from the historical and nostalgic (and humour) value some of the technical info is even still relevant today; well worth watching IMHO (and if you look closely and don't blink you may even see my name in the credits ;-) ):
