Nice to see a few more films listed for her since the last site update but I think I have one more for you Alec. Its HGP v124. Title is "Stephanie". I beleive it is an Essex Studios production (HGP web site will confirm this). It is very similar to most of thier films i.e. solo, masturbation with an emphasis on dirty talking, different outfits, dildoes etc. I thought Steph was fantastic in this one she certainly did a better job at talking absolute filth than Tamsin le Vann did in another Essex Studios tape I have. I hope this is not the same film as the Astral Blue title you have got listed and if not does anyone know where I can buy Astral tapes. Also does anyone know if the original numbered Ben Dovers are available from anywhere. I know Euroflex had a few but I would prefer to buy from a company that does not sell animal porn.

Mr Magoo,
>does anyone know where I can buy Astral tapes.
This my friend is THE golden question. I would really like to know myself. After about 5 years of searching I have only managed to find about 30 of the 150-160 titles Paul/Charlie produced.
The only place I knew that DID stock them was HGP. However they have now recalled all 'their' Essex Studio's/Astral Blue/Paula Markham titles...presumably due to copywrite infringement!
What other Astral titles do you have???
>I hope this is not the same film as the Astral Blue title you
>have got listed.
I am led to belive that "Tamsin le Vann" did do more than one title for Charlie. However, from experience I can say that I (personally) have only ever found one! The one I have was the same as the HGP version as well as all the others I have seen.
Hope this helps!

I have a couple of old Astral Blue catalogues and can only remember one Tamsin (Tasmin) video which is CV23.
Unless they did a "Master Cut" version like the one they did of Dawn Davies.

Thanks for the info Mark and TC. It sounds like the "Tamsin" film that HGP had is probably the same one and I would presume that the same would apply to the Astral Blue title listed on this site under Stephanie Collins being the the same as HGP v124. I only discovered HGP a short while ago so unfortunately I only have about 7 or 8 of thier films. Only the "Tasmin le Van" and Stephanie Collins tapes are credited as Essex Studios the others are a mixture of Brighton Belle Films, Amateur Gold and Erotic Blue Video. Am I correct in assuming some of these are the same producers as Astral or does the guy behind the camera just sound similar? In my opinion the Essex Studios are the better of the three but why confuse things by also releasing the same films under the Astral Blue label?

HGP's V124 title, is the same Stephanie Collins film that is listed on this site.

The guy behind the camera may sound similar, but from what I am aware they are different 'productions'.
>In my opinion the Essex Studios are the better of the three but >why confuse things by also releasing the same films under the >Astral Blue label?
In my opinion (for what it's worth), Astral Blue are the best of all of them! As for confusion, well Charlie/Paul(a)only released his titles under the name of first Paula Markham (when him and his wife went into the business together), but after their split he subsequently released the titles (some being the same), under the Astral Blue label. He never actually released any films under the Essex Studio's label, this was the title given to the films by HGP...maybe to avoid copywrite attention from Charlie???

Thanks for clearing that up for me. I agree with you that the Astral films are the best. If HGP have pulled the titles due to copywrite attention from Charlie then we can only hope that he might release them. They are obviously popular so it seems daft for the copywrite owner not to market them. I will keep my eyes open and if anyone sees them re-released please post details on the forum.
