I am looking for some archive of tv listings from 1995 to 2000 - free one.
I know there are newspaper archives but these are paid services and I only want to look at tv listings.
So if anyone knows of a way, it would be appreciated.

That's a big ask.
Maybe in the town library they will have newspapers (or microfilms) from those years.
Or even back issues of Radio Times.

It's possible the information may be held by an organisation such as OfCom or the BBC, in which case you could request it, but if it's not held in an easily accessible form or they make it commercial available then they can refuse0

Long shot, but have you tried the internet archive?
Perhaps some old tv guides are archived on it..[greenhighlight]but it matters when the most senior politician in the land is happy to use language and examples that are simply not true.

The impact of this is to stigmatise people on benefits,
and we should be deeply worried about that[/redtitle](house of lords debate, talking about Cameron)0 -
I just found this site - http://tvlistings.thetvroomplus.com/
However, it's archives are patchy at best, so don't know how useful it is for your purposes. What exactly are you planning on doing with the information?0 -
Do you know anyone in univeristy? Their university may have access to internet archives for major newspapers.
Or the other option is the same as above: going into the library and asking if they keep any old newspapers.0
