Default BBC Computer literacy project archive

Likely to be of interest to retro computer buffs, especially those with BBC Micro allegiance. Hundreds of programmes associated with the original BBC computer literacy Project - 'Micro Live', etc - have now been placed online.

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-44628869

It's not very obvious, but you get from the article to the actual archive page by clicking on the bold The Computer Literacy Project link on the third line of the article.

Thanks for this. These programmes are what started my computer education and current career. As did the BBC micro and Archimedes
