TOTP appearances

THE place for your Sisters-related comments, questions and snippets of Sisters information. For those who do not know, The Sisters of Mercy are a rock'n'roll band. And a pop band. And an industrial groove machine. Or so they say. They make records. Lots of records, apparently. But not in your galaxy. They play concerts. Lots of concerts, actually. But you still cannot see them. So what's it all about, Alfie? This is one of the few tightly-moderated forums on Heartland, so please keep on-topic. All off-topic posts will either be moved or deleted. Chairman Bux is the editor and the editor's decision is final. Danke.

I recently found a few Top of the Pops Youtube vids from the Sisters and today found three more, including one where Dominion is played, and a pretty amazing one where Andy sings Temple of Love '92 live with Ofra as a part of the band! Now I heard saying that Floodland was a studio only album with no tours or gigs, but as an exception, I think the Sisters' TOTP appearances during that era give a pretty good indication of their onstage behaviour and band composition, even though they're playbacking.
I believe there are many, many more Sisters appearances on TOTP than just these four or five, has anyone seen more or maybe even got the appearances themselves recorded?

(btw these were the ones I found:

On which DVD are these available?
All my life I've wanted to be someone; I guess I should have been more specific.
