Well even the first series from Playback is a bit grainy, the BBC
must regret not putting more effort into the film stock they used.
Still, with all the new techniques that some companies in the US are
adopting for remastering old footage (Criterion – The 39 Steps, The
Third Man; Warner Brothers – Gone with the Wind etc.)
I've had a look on e-bay and it seems that 19.99 STG is the going
rate for Series 2-4. I had a look on MemphisBelle but cannot see a
way of ordering from them ? 2/3rd of the price at 19.95 Euros.
Cheers,
Desmond.
