Film buff rescues more than 20,000 VHS tapes set for
dump
A movie buff has rescued more than 20,000 VHS tapes from landfill after travelling
300 miles to collect them.
Andy Johnson, who runs what is said to be the UK's last video shop, drove from Liverpool

The 42-year-old fulfilled his dream of opening a video shop in the Toxteth TV venue in
2018 and described the response since then as "phenomenal".
He even had to expand the store after being inundated with tapes from well-wishers
across the country.
Earlier this year, the shop featured on a movie lovers' bucket list, compiled by Time Out
Magazine, alongside Hobbiton in New Zealand and the Ghostbusters firehouse
in New York.
But the Dundee donation will more than double his existing 15,000-strong collection and
he is applying for funding to create a national archive.
Mr Johnson told BBC Scotland: "I was just absolutely amazed when I got the phone call.作者: martina28043 時間: 2021-8-22 15:12
