Does anybody know where I can ahold of this?
On eBay and Amazon.com, they're only in NTSC format, and I'm not sure my TV will play it. I can't afford to buy one right now, but I would like to in the future as long as its PAL.
Are there any particular shops in London that sell it? I'm going there soon, and it may be the only way I can get it in PAL format. Oh, and how much am I looking at price wise?
Thanks! Em

The dvd collection? Its (from what people have told me) Not available in England, and thats one of the things that gets up some peoples arses.
And if its a dvd then you only need a multi-region dvd player. And if your telly is reasonably new it will probably be multi-format. NZ tellys are great for playing PAL and NTSC formats. What sorta telly is it miss?

You can try E-bay as well there are always French and Saunders dvd on there and you don't always need a credit card...

hmm, I'm pretty sure the dvd player's multi-regional, and the telly is a Panasonic QuintrixF. Only a couple of years old, so it should play NTSC? I should test it... I can't believe its not available in England! Why, its not an American show or anything! Its so ridiculous! No wonder people are a bit upset about it... well, its probably better for me to just get an NTSC one from Amazon.com. I did see a PAL one, but its just 4 dvds, not including season 6 or the specials. .... so no go there i'm afraid! Better keep saving that dosh then.... jenaddict- I think i saw a cheaper one on amazon than ebay, but it doesn't matter about using a credit card cos i can use dad's and pay him back for it. He won't let me use it unless i've got the money already, which i dont' have right now unfortunately, but the dvds are first on my list when i have enough

Yeah your TV should play it. Its only a couple of years old and mines a panasonic too. I haven't come across anyone in NZ that's had to worry abour different formats. Just get the amazon one, our currency conversions with the US aint bad at all, it seems to be pretty high at the mo.

If your dvd player isn't multiregional you may be able to hack it with a code to make it m.r. Look for your player listed here: www.videohelp.com/ If this isn't what you are needing then just forget I even exist or ever posted this. Thank you.
