Jim says:

A lot of Philip Donellen's material became part of the Charles Parker archive in Birmingham, - http://www.birmingham.gov.uk/charlesparkerarchive - now (I believe) fully digitised with copies available through the National Sound Archive.

However what about the t.v. programmes or films? Actually does the National Sound Archives keep films digitised or otherwise? Or would the BFI have copies? Either way the recordings would be well out of the public domain - where they belong - largely restricted to professional or academic researchers (which is a sore point, me not being one of those).
