Philips Large Valve radio from 1954. Me or the bin - so it came here!

NOTE: My Girlfriend Katie comes tomorrow from America so there won't be any videos for about 3 weeks.
This set was one of the first with a ECC85 circuit and it is a cracker on VHF. After I sorted a problem that it had from NEW\! Always fault find rather than scatter change components. I could have done a Capacitor Change on this and it still would not have worked.....
