Description

Eamonn Holmes reports for UTV on how to care for your VCR (Video Cassette Recorder). He speaks to Les Patterson, a member of the video trade as they stand beside a VCR which has had its top taken off and which is hooked up to a portable television. We are shown the complicated inside of the machine and Les demonstrates how to use a Video Head Cleaner tape. He exhorts the viewers to treat your VCR like you would a car and to have it serviced periodically.
