I would be interested to know just how many people on this list really do not know who Chris Boucher is. Perhaps they would like to make themselves known :-)...

FWIW, when I joined this list for the first time back in '95 (mutters crustily in the rocking chair and shawl), a) I had no copies of the videos b) it was my first venture into fandom c) I'd never joined Horizon or any other fan club since I'm not someone who joins things d) my only knowledge of the show was something that I'd loved dearly from the original UK broadcasts, and I had a copy of "Scorpio Attack". e) had never heard of Chris Boucher
So I remember what it was like to know virtually nothing about the show compared to most people on this list, except my own memories which didn't include the names of the scriptwriters. Back then, if I'd seen a message like Judith's, I would have been grateful to learn who Chris Boucher is and why I might be interested in a script of his. And why shouldn't someone be interested in collecting scripts rather than videos? Everyone expresses their fannish interests in different ways and that might mean choosing scripts over videos and being interested in a script but not primarily because it was Chris Boucher that wrote it but maybe because it's a favourite remembered episode.
And there have been plenty of times in my life when I haven't had access to a VCR so spending money on a script would have made far more sense than spending it on a video.
