EARLY ACCESS: DIGITISER THE SHOW - THE SHOCKING TRUTH!
Added 2021-04-14 14:05:22 +0000 UTCHello all. Here's this week's video a little early. The first I've done without a co-host! Well, kinda. Sanja's there, off-camera, being Sanja.
I've still got another bunch of videos which I'll get you before the end of the week, one for each tier, and then there's the second part of this Q&A, which I've decided to keep as a Patreon exclusive for y'all. They're both whoppers.
This one is almost 90 minutes long - far longer than I'd normally do - but I think it's an important one for a channel. Break it into chunks if it's easier.
A lot of the stuff I talk about here I've spoken about before on Patreon, but I think this is the first time I've addressed it publicly. So, it's a bit more serious than our videos usually are, but it feels kind of important to share with a wider audience. So, thank you for your questions, which gave me the chance to do that.
I have to say, watching it back, with all its clips of the different things we've done over the years, and callbacks to classic Digi, I'm so proud of not only the breadth of stuff we've created, but also the continuity with the Teletext days.
As we start to emerge from lockdown, and plan some more ambitious videos again, the timing of putting this out now feels kind of perfect. It feels like a kind of mission statement for going forwards; the end of one era, the Lockdown era of Digi, and the start of a new one.
We're in the early stages of planning for the next run of Digitiser Deluxe and Supernatural World, as well as keeping the regular videos and podcasts rolling out weekly. And, of course, Digi Live (fingers crossed).
So, anyway. Enough waffle. Here's this week's video.

I’m one of those that discovered the channel through the likes of ashens and the Barshens lot and I’m glad I’ve stuck around. This is the video that encouraged me to become a patron. Loving the content you’re putting out, if I want retro video game content there are plenty of places I can go! Oh and my wife absolutely adores Sanja!

2021-04-15 13:39:19 +0000 UTCThank you for answering my question - really appreciate it. Thank you as well for your honesty in all your replies. Really interesting to see the creative process, but also all the challenges you've met along the way. I've said it before, but just do what you want to do. Many of us will continue to follow along and you may pick up some other odd-bods along the way! :)

2021-04-15 08:28:43 +0000 UTCif I remember... Povington was the name of the repulsive brown clown (only belatedly realising that this might sound a bit problematic)... and the day in his honour was abbreviated to Pov'ry Day (of course)!

2021-04-14 17:42:10 +0000 UTCThanks for answering my question (and for the kind words about the site!); we do indeed have French Book and the ‘your daddy is in the toast’ Man Diary. I’ll see if I can dig them out. We don’t have any of the others you mentioned though, so finding Povrey Day has become an immediate priority! Also, I always love seeing Turts & Phants - and The Funny Dancers have me in bits. Like Third Bird, the Digiverse idea surely has legs. Some kind of sketch show with all your characters would be mana from heaven - I’d chuck money straight at it.

2021-04-14 16:37:33 +0000 UTCVery much enjoyed this video, and I look forward to the rest of the Q&A. You might not consider yourself a performer but you're a very engaging monologuer.

2021-04-14 15:44:46 +0000 UTCThat hour and a bit flew, you kept it engaging all the way through which isn't east for FAQ sessions.
