See notes at the bottom of the page for information on these videos - the key to enjoyable watching is to select a size that you can download reasonably quickly, because some of the big versions will take ages if you are using a modem. We're only making these for fun, so please don't expect the worlds best home videos!

All of the videos are in Windows Media Player format, as this seems to be the smallest file size. I'm not expert at this, so if you have feedback, good or bad, then email us using the link at the bottom of the page to let us know what you think. These videos are just for fun, they're not intended in any way to be professional, but as Charlotte and I learn things, they're getting slowly better!

Most of them are in two versions. The low bandwidth version is the one to download if you're on a modem at home. They'll typically take 10-15 minutes to download, and will be very low quality, due to the way the video is squished to make a small file. The high bandwidth version, which still isn't video quality, is the one to watch if you've got ADSL, or if you're using somebody else's fast Internet connection (like work or the library)
