Thanks for letting me know in detail, it's a real shame that it can't be completely colour restored. I do notice the highlights you can't see the chroma dots but I thought it was the way the film was scanned.

I suppose a hybrid process of chroma dot recovery on the darker areas and colour tint painting on the higher lighted areas could be an option but I guess you guys are probably not keen on doing that. But it is an option. I know with some Dr Who episodes, some scenes which colour couldn't be recovered was colour tinted while other scenes colour recovered.

I notice with British kinescopes of the late 60s and early 70s seem to be more precise in sharpness and lighting levels which is probably why they've had better success in recovering colour for them.
