Videos of Sir Nigel in steam

We are very grateful for having received some video clips of Sir Nigel at work down the years. Some of these have been reduced in size considerably for use on the Internet but can still take a while to download, especially if you are using a dial-up connection.

These are WMV files which will open your browser (depending on plug-ins) or in the likes of Windows Media Player, Irfan View, Real Player and VLC but do not open in Quick Time.

Most of the larger files have a smaller version, though the quality will not be as good as in the larger one.
