The Advertising Standards Authority is the independent self-regulatory body set up by the advertising industry to police the rules laid down in the advertising codes. Until November 2004 this only related to print media, but now it also covers TV and radio commercials. These are listed in the site, and details are provided if one wishes to make contact and comment on an advert or advertising campaign. The site also provides a useful set of links to related bodies as well as copies of their adjudication’s.

Part of the Internet Archive, which also covers archived moving images (The Internet Moving Images Archive), audio and software, the Wayback Machine holds cached versions of thousands of websites and billions of pages, allowing users to look at sites that are no longer available or at earlier versions of ones that are still around. An invaluable resource that, due to the gigantic nature of the holdings, is slightly hampered by the fact that no list of the holdings can be easily provided. This means inevitably that correct recall of the URL in question is necessary, or failing that, searching for it on the web first.

Available in both Dutch and English-language versions, the database can be searched by title, personality and organisation and lists over 20,000 individual film and television titles. These searches can also be refined quite narrowly by year, genre and even by whether the film is in colour or not. The entries are brief but to the point and all entries are properly and thoroughly cross-indexed.

Previously a subscription service known as Tookeys Film Guide, this is now advert-supported and therefore much more accessible. It remains a fairly large and certainly up-to-date database, detailing the often eccentric opinions of film critic Christopher Tookey which can be searched by title, personality, year, keyword and genre. It also provides a very useful sampling of opinions by other critics as well as a rather dubious rating system. Now includes some of Tookey’s BBC Radio broadcasts.
