I have heard that BBC did a documentary on O. Winston Link. If so, has anyone seen it, and where can I get it?

Thanks.

Chris Jacks.

Seems to me it has been shown at several Link shows. It is
worth seeing and has a funny ending. Try the museum
in Roanoke.

I don't think the BBC had anything to do with it as I recall it was shown on Channel 4. It was very good. I've got it on video somewhere but don't, currently, have the time to look for it.
