Hi,I am trying to obtain Series 3 of ONEDIN LINE< all I think I can get is a VHS from the UK. I don't think that would work, would it? But, I guess a DVD would be OK, in the US, or elsewhere. Please give me the possible address of any concern who can sell a Series 3 DVD.Many thanks,Linda Huthmaker

Subject: Series 4 and maybe 5 and others on DVD?Been away on holiday for a couple of weeks so catching up on my mail. I've not got my DVDs of series 4 yet. For me it is very good news that these are now available as my recordings of this series were done on a ropey old VCR I had at the time. So I'll be glad to replace them.
I also need 2 episodes from series 5, "When Trouble Comes" and "Rescue" to replace my bad versions then I have a complete series 5 on DVD, So if anyone has good quality tapes with these 2 episodes I'll do a swap. You lend me the tapes and I'll send them back to you along with the complete series 5 on DVDs or whatever else we can agree
on.Since it seems unlikely that further series will be released in the near future I may be persuaded to do "swaps" for other TV series or maybe just for the cost of covering materials and postage, if anyone is interested.
Almost all the rest of the series episodes of the whole series I have in good enough quality to transfer to DVD, (my "just for fun" mail should give an idea of the quality
http://www.sound-research.co.uk/clip.htm I must add another clip to this). I think there are possibly 2 more episodes in my collection which are ok to watch but fall below what I regard as acceptable for DVD, IIRC these are "No Smoke Without Fire" and "Storm Clouds" there might be one or two more.Bill.
PS
I've noticed that UK Drama is at the moment running series 1 The Onedin Line. At the moment it is up to episode 13 Shadow of Doubt (today 4 to 5 pm BST). So if anyone needs to needs to fill in some gaps in their collection time to get the
recorder dusted off.

Yahoo! Mail goes everywhere you do. Get it on your phone.Hi Linda,
Series 3 and 4 are available at eBay,
bol.com and freerecordshop.com (as well as series 1 and 2). Don’t know if
you can play all region DVDs because series 3 and 4 are only available in
region2.In the UK
they have only series 1 on DVD and 1 and 2 on video, the same in the
US .Regards,
Marianne

Yahoo! Mail goes
everywhere you do. Get
it on your phone.There is little point in buying VHS tapes unless
you don't have a DVD player.Series 3 is available on DVDs which are far more
robust and do not wear out through repeated use.BUT…. USA is
region 1, UK and Europe (Australia as well I think) and some other parts of the
world are region 2. As sold a player will probably only play the region you
are in (USA in your case). As far as the region compatibility is concerned
many players can be made to play back discs from any region. This is called
region hacking and is not as fearsome as it sounds. Check the list of players
and the instructions here to make your player region free enter the model an hit
the search button:http://www.videohelp.com/dvdhacks If
you have a player listed there you are ok. If not I'd suggest buying a cheap
player, I don't know about the USA but in the UK DVD players are for sale at
less than £20 which I'd guess is about $30 and can be made region
free.The USA uses a TV system called NTSC, in the UK
Europe and much of the rest of the world the PAL system is used. The good news
is that as far as I am aware all DVD players will correctly play either system
so there should be no problem with that.Bill.style="PADDING-RIGHT:0px;PADDING-LEFT:5px;MARGIN-LEFT:5px;BORDER-LEFT:#000000 2px solid;MARGIN-RIGHT:0px;">

can't remember the URL now to the online shop, but a search on eBay should find
what you want. I expect someone on here will remind us of the link.Bill.style="PADDING-RIGHT:0px;PADDING-LEFT:5px;MARGIN-LEFT:5px;BORDER-LEFT:#000000 2px solid;MARGIN-RIGHT:0px;">
