well, please let us know once you've received it whether it's authentic! don't know anything about sister gan nineteen! is it based on a set of novels? I don't know regarding the authenticity : since it will be a rip, it won't be authentic, unless you mean authentic regarding the fact that it's really the Yang Pan Pan's series... i mean that i hope it really is the yang pan pan version and not a gyp.

Hum...What is " gyp ". I vaguely understand what you mean, but...is it a real word or an abbreviation of several words ?

oh wow, that's really amazing! i'm glad that the CTV productions have seen light of day again! let's hope they will become available for a wider audience! do you know the titles of the other 10 series? i really hope the michelle yim version of LOCH can become available in the future! i heard an old radio interview with kenneth tsang, who directed a lot of programs at CTV, and he said that michelle's portrayal was the best he'd seen (and don't forget, he played yung mei ling's dad in LOCH82, so his critique is worth paying attention to). Well according to the Takongpao articles (the author wrote 5 articles regarding the CTV series), it seems that there was also at least "Flying Fox on Snow Mountain", "The White Haired Demoness", and "Sword Stained with Royal Blood". And it's quite odd that I couldn't even find news about "CTV on TVB Platform" on the net either. There is a CTV fanpage on Facebook but no mentioning of anything near to "Where can I watch?" The internet unfortunately still has its limits Anyway found this.

yenchin hmmmmm... interesting choices. one of the reasons i'm curious about CTV's LOCH being on the roster is because my late aunt knew someone who worked at TVB, and that person said that the LOCH reels had gone missing. not sure if that's a true story.

The internet unfortunately still has its limits Anyway found this. Is this clip from Condor heroes 1976 ? I have Return of the Condor Heroes 1976 and it's the same song. When you talk about White haired demoness, are you talking about the 1978 series with Lily Li ? If so, I also found it. I didn't know that Kenneth Tsang had directed programs on CTV, but well, here in France, there a zero informations about Chinese actors, so... Is The sword stained with royal blood you are referring to the very old TVB one (in the 70's, if I'm not mistaken) ? If so, I got it too (sorry, don't be jealous...: ))). And is The flying fox on snowy mountain the one with Pai Piao ? I don't dare to tell you that I also got it... )
When you searched on the TVB platforms, did you search on TVB Anywhere ? I took a look there and saw that they aired Adam Cheng's Lord of imprisonment, which is not a TVB series, so, maybe you'll find the CTV ones there.
I also recently got an old 1981 TVB series called The sword ; I haven't watched it as yet, but it seems to me that Ha Yu plays in it.

after a search online, i found the main cast for CTV's snowy mountain: 胡斐 - 衛子雲 苗若蘭 - 李通明 胡一刀 - 衛子雲 (so he plays father & son) 胡一刀夫人 - 馬海倫 苗人鳳 - 白彪 程靈素 - 文雪兒 袁紫衣 - 米雪 田歸農 - 羅樂林 main cast for BXJ: 袁承志 - 陳強 夏青青 - 文雪兒 阿九 - 李通明 夏雪宜 - 石天 溫儀 - 胡茵茵 何紅藥 - 魏秋華 何鐵手 - 林秀 李岩 - 李天鷹 黃真 - 劉江 main cast for white hair demoness: 練霓裳 - 李麗麗 卓一航 - 白彪 鐵珊瑚 - 文雪兒 岳鳴珂 - 羅樂林 耿紹南 - 麥子云 鐵飛龍 - 鄭雷 now, the most important question reinafu : are the series you own any good? would you be willing to write critiques on all the series you own--you can start your own thread! we'd be very interested!

I only recognize the Chinese names of Pai Piao and Lily Li in your list (and I'm not even sure for Lily Li). Well, I think that I'm a completely mad collector : I don't even know if I'll live long enough to be able to watch all the series I have collected !! But I'll write reviews for sure when I'll watch them as I already did in this forum a long while ago...

yenchin hmmmmm... interesting choices. one of the reasons i'm curious about CTV's LOCH being on the roster is because my late aunt knew someone who worked at TVB, and that person said that the LOCH reels had gone missing. not sure if that's a true story. According to another article I found on the net, "a few years ago" TVB broadcasted the CTV's ROCH but didn't show LOCH, causing a lot of rumors such as the originals being destroyed. Since this was a very popular series, there's no reason not to broadcast it. Heck, it's the only adaptation of the REAL original LOCH, that is a good enough reason to attract the audience! I guess the best chance we have is that the originals are in someone's (grand)dad's VHS collection waiting to be rediscovered.

LOL any form of history makes me envy! All of the series I mentioned were the CTV versions with the cast listed as in Siuyiu's post (I'm quite surprised that Wai zi wan/Barry Chan/衛子雲 started his work that early...he always struck me as an '80s guy XD) I took a look at the VOD section in the TVB Anywhere and saw some ATV series in there, but not any CTV ones

i had to re-find the ROCH76 themesong to have a listen because i don't remember what it sounds like. i can confirm that the melody is the same as the themesong of LOCH76 but different lyrics. and different singer.
