    Thanks Trevor,
    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.

    Hi Sue,
    I hope you're pleased the Season 4, could you just answer me the
    following.
    1. How is the quality i.e. graininess,
    colour/contrast/brightness. If anyone else has a copy of this or
    Season 2/3 then a short sample clip (30 seconds or so) might be good
    (or if you yourself know how the extract a clip form a DVD ?)
    2. Are the subtitles (in Dutch I presume) mandatory or can they
    be switched off. I have seen Dutch imports where the subtitles
    are 'burned' into the video image.

    I am asking these questions as I have given up on a UK company
    releasing this terrific series. Goodness knows, the US are even
    releasing Dalla, Dynasty and The Waltons which pales into
    insignificance compared to this great series.

    Cheers,

    Desmond.

    postmark was 25.4.06.
