U-matic tapes of old SF documentary

major_clangerSorting through my boxes of stuff I find I have several U-matic video cassettes that purport to contain copies of The Hitch-Hiker's Guide to the Galaxy and Time out of Mind. The former is of course easily available but the latter I'd not heard of, although the notes on the tapes (e.g. 'John Brunner') made it clear it was something to do with sf. Searching online the tapes are evidently of this, suggesting that they comprise material filmed at the 1979 Worldcon. Another tape is labelled as being of Utopia 2000.
I have a vague memory that someone gave us the tapes for the 1995 Worldcon but that we had no easy way of showing them. Does anyone have access to a U-matic player, as it would be nice to see if there is anything interesting on these tapes?
