These were originally uploaded to the box by demonstimpy. S01E02 - Light In The Sky is not ripped from BBC Choice and looks to me to be a VHSRip - hence the different file size/settings to the others. As I am not the original ripper, nor is the original uploader to thebox, I can't provide any further details.Airing DatesAfter the first airings in 1981 it was repeated in 1983 and 1985. When broadcast both series one and two are generally shown together. Pigeon Street was also repeated a couple of times between 1986 and 1994. BBC Choice repeated them starting 12th June 2000.Sourceshttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pigeon_Streethttp://www.pigeonstreet.com
