Video Footage of Le Mans 007

Hi Guys and Gals,

The camera drama from last year continues..... Camera is OK, don't worry.

Over the Chritmas period I took the Sony apart.
Every tiny screw was undone and it kind of fell to bits,a most interesting pile of bits and pieces and gubbins (Stuff unidentifiable and not a bit or a piece)
Managed to extract the tape!
But it was snapped. Damm!
So I sellotaped the ends together and tried the tape in the new camera.
As it loaded, the tape, it must have given way on the splicing, I was commanded immediately by the camera to remove the cartridge, I did and one end of the tape is now in the cartridge, the other is presenting itself quite nicely, but without the other end I am a bit knackered.
Upon investigation the cartridge is heat sealed. There are no screws to take it apart.
If any one has any ideas as to how I can solve this knotty problem I would be most grateful.

Yours faithfully.

Mark.

And if the ladies from the ACO are reading this, Happy New Year to you. Maybe Andy will introduce us all at Le Classic if there is time?
