Clarification needed please – DVDs!!

1.Yes, they are every eipsode; and each episode is complete with
credits, etc.
2. They are in English with Dutch subtiutles; rthe subtitles can be
turned off.
3. They are region 2; so they should play on every British dvd player

I hope this answers your questions.

Best wishes – Helga

(P.S.: The CD copies of the remaining series which Bill kindly made for
us are still with Carie, but she promised to send them on shortly)

just to avoid misunderstandings: The information I gave last time was
about SERIES THREE which is newly available on the Dutch bol.com website!!!

The versions of series ONE and TWO are the BBC versions (episodes cut;
two episodes missing; no separation between individual episodes).

If you want the complete e p i s o d e s ONE to EIGHT from Series ONE:
There is a version of these episodes for the Canadian/American market
(available e.g. via Amazon.com); they consist of two parts with two
discs each (the cover gives a wrong impression because its photo is
obviously taken from one of the later series). They are region one, so
you will need a multi-region dvd player.

Hoping that I haven't caused any confusion, best wishes – Helga
