"Denis Gifford's British Film Catalogue has established itself, through two editions, as the standard work on its subject, providing the most comprehensive and accurate source of information about British fiction films. It attempts to include every traceable British entertainment film from the inception of the ""silent cinema"" to the present day. In this new edition all entries have been revised, and coverage is extended through 1994. In addition, this third edition includes, for the first time, a new second volume, also available separately, devoted to the non-fiction film. The British film industry has excelled in non-fiction cinema, particularly documentary, and this wholly original volume provides full coverage of non-fiction films from the silent era to 1994. These two volumes of the British Film Catalogue are a unique, authoritative source of information for historians, archivists, librarians and film scholars."

Although Denis Gifford's British Film Catalogue has become a classic reference source for film historians, his interests and expertise extended well beyond British cinema, encompassing animation, comic-book, television, and radio history, and Denis was justifiablyproud of his reputation as 'number one nostalgist'.1927-2000
