The BBC program In Search of Steve Ditko, by Jonathan Ross, was pulled from YouTube, but not before I downloaded it, so I’ll post it here. This is a tiny 320×240 video, and letterboxed at that, scaled up to 440×330.

Ross is a top name on the BBC, from what I’ve read. He’s married to a posh bird named Jane Goldman.
This program is extraordinary to Silver Age fans like myself and D.F. Rogers. If such a thing existed on PBS, it would be buried on POV at 1 in the morning. “In Search of Steve Ditko” was shown at 9 on a Sunday night – peak prime time. Incredible. Way to go, BBC!
Jonathan Ross, the thinking man’s British comic book dweeb! Just kidding! This looks good!
