Many of these records were transcribed from fiche, and as such there is no pressing need for the images for transcription. Scanning of images required for transcription will always take priority. So, they will become available eventually, but (as it says on the images site), we can't comment on when that is likely to be. -- Dave Mayall

Some good news, films for 1871 to 1880 (plus some other years) have been ordered for FreeBMD and delivery is expected in about 6 weeks. At present I can't say when they will be scanned and accessible on the FreeBMD site.
