- NOTE: DR Archive and Research Centre does not lend programmes from the television archives. For purposes of research, however, it is possible via the public library system to access TV programmes from Statens Mediesamling at the national library in Århus, which has since 1987 received video copies of all programs that have been transmitted on DR-TV.
- Stills
- Staffan Valdemar Holm updated the action to the quasi-present, with a black-uniformed Iago in charge of a group of Gestapo-like guards with rifles who never let Otello and Desdemona out of their sights.
