@brianlls2 @tvtimesmagazine Hi Brian, thanks so much for your message. Unfortunately we have not yet digitised the year 1984 for the Ellesmere Port Pioneer - we have added it to our digitisation pipeline. In the meantime you could try to access the paper from the British Library or a local library.
