I know in the 1980s, Barrie Hinchliffe Productions (known as BHP or BHP Sport) have provided a lot of motorsport footage on television and video tapes especially for the BBC. They was based in London.
They had a website:
www.bhp-sport.com but it doesn't work.
Now as I know the compnay has gone bust, but who got or owns the footage now?
I found a post from the Pistonheads forum:
Steve Rider was a director of BHP Sport ( Barrie Hinchcliffe Productions) he was removed from that post in the early 1990's as other production companies complained that BHP were winning all the contracts for Grandstand and there was a conflict of interest as Rider was also a presenter for the BBC.
I have been reading stories that Dukevideo got all of the footage, is it true? Or was there an auction and the old directors brought back the footage?
