    Hi Bill,

    that is very nice from you. Can you produce another disc for me (I
    hope you will not have to build hundreds of them)? Maybe it would be
    easier to use a file sharing program like Torrent, eMule or Applejuice
    (I'm sorry that the last one is in german, but it is much faster than
    the others if there is only one source; URL: http://www.apple-juice.org).

    Kind regards

    Barbara in Germany

    Hi Herv�,

    they are not. All series are with english sound track. The subtitles
    are english (series 1, british version) or dutch (series 1-3, dutch
    version). Other sound tracks or subtitles are not available.

    I'm sorry for you, but you have to go along with these languages.

    Barbara

    Has anyone seen the new Australian DVD edition of season one
    (http://www.dvdbits.com/reviews.asp?id=2666)? It is coded region 4,
    but with a multi-region player it should not be a problem to see it
    elsewhere than Australia.
    The given overall running time of 750 minutes would account for 15
    episodes of 50 minutes but I cannot find an episode list. The short
    contents descriptions of the four DVDs could be written for the BBC or
    dutch edition as well.
    At another address
    (http://www.dvdorchard.com.au/Product.asp?PND=111856) the same edition
    is to include five DVDs instead of four but with only 632 minutes
    contents. That does not make sense at all.
    I would much like to know if this edition is cut like the others or not.
