Over 2,000 streamable news images 1896-2000 (from French Pathe and ITN Archive) available on subscription at low and high bandwidths (using Windows Media Player). It is possible to search by names, keywords and dates (though there are only three clips available for the first fifteen years). Most images suffer from artifacting flaws throughout, a surprising number have French soundtracks, and little has been done to catalogue the material in any useful sense, but the range of material (almost half are from the 1990s) and its ease of use impresses. It costs £4 per year, and there is a free preview section. It also links to Frost.TV.
This site is no longer active, but the Internet Archive’s Wayback Machine offers a capture of the website as it appeared on 05/08/2018. This does not include access to the moving images.

The Yorkshire Film Archive locates, preserves and exhibits film made in, or about, the Yorkshire region. The site contains details of over 3,000 films and videos from the Archive’s collection of over 16,000 titles. These include documentaries, newsreels, advertising films, and home movie collections, all capturing the rich moving image heritage of the region over the past one hundred years. YFA Online also includes over 60 hours of digitised film clips and additional contextual information.
The YFA is member of the Film Archives UK body (formerly Film Archives Forum), the organisation that represents the UK’s public sector film and television archives. In October 2012 the Yorkshire Film Archive merged with the North East Film Archive (formerly the Northern Region Film Archive) under the Yorkshire Film Archive banner and charity but - in recognition of the two regions’ distinct identities - the two archives do retain their own regional titles and separate websites.
