i love this film immensely and and even record it from tv way back in the 1980 . but sadly lose the film on a trip back to africa . i could kick myself many time over . for me and the attraction of the film be two fold while primarily for the adventure and fun and humour and but also for the factual element surround the sometimes profitable art of fossicking . i doubt very much that it would every be release again and but i live in hope that the bbc or one of the movie channel will show it again ( though usually of course and this happen at some obscure hour of the morning . ) .
