I got the the Me and My Micro Acorn Electron bundle for Christmas 1984. I think I typed in all the programs for my Acorn Electron. This is the first time I ever saw the actual TV programme though.
Just to add some more info to these videos... Yorkshire Television's 5-part series, Me & My Micro first aired on 10th June, 1984. It was repeated in January 1985 in the 5:30 slot on Channel 4. Time for a re-showing methinks, and yes, long overdue a DVD release. Apparently it *was* available on VHS.
I was the one who uploaded it, not his son .. I tracked him down due to him being a Rev, it made it far easier.. it was the Rev / programmer himself I got it from ! . helpful chap and he sent me the actual tape :)
@fuzzface100 Yeah, me too! I downloaded it from World of Spectrum (Thanks to the vicar's son!) and although the game's a tad slow, it really is quite fun. Maybe one'll turn up at a carboot some day. :)

I found an advert for this on a Betamax tape from 9th June 1984. Good to know there's more about it online

Would love to get hold of a copy of that Bible game for my Spectrum - it looks so exciting to play.
