While looking through Sam Knee's book 'A Scene In Between' I noticed a photo that was taking during the making of a promo video for the TVP's 'Smashing Time'. Does anyone have a copy of that video? Or is it as the book claims 'lost in time'?

Must admit that this one passed me by but there was an LP by the O Level issued in 2014.
The 'Pseudo Punk' LP featured 11 tracks and was issued by Munster Records in Spain.

I've uploaded a clip of my bands cover of 'Mill Hill Self Hate Club' to youtube anyone wants to listen to it?
Our version came out last year on a limited 7 inch single.

My bands version of 'Mill Hill' is getting a very limited vinyl pressing and will be out on 7 inch in a couple of weeks on Red Star Recordings.

My band just finished our recording last week of Ed Ball's 'The Mill Hill Self Hate Club' which is set for release on a tribute album to Ed Ball via The Beautiful Music record label in Canada.
