I managed to find where you can buy the DVD - I'm not plugging the site or anything, just I'd been looking for it for ages and when I saw your message online I thought I'd give it a try and hey presto - it's getting delivered as I type!!! There's a well known shop with a dog and record player in its logo, that sells it in Australia whicH i'M Validating. I would give you the direct URL but I just read that that's not acceptable, I just hope you Hear My Voice and give it a look! I hope that helps with your hunting down for the mini series! I was only 4 when it was shown in the UK and I loved it then, and still whistle that addictive tune often! The show is quite simply brilliant, I still remember it from way back when as if it were yesterday, brought me to tears seeing friends in the trenches marching to their doom at times and all the things that went on at that time. I loved the script, the editing, authenticity and connection you gained with the different characters. A must see show if there ever is one about the war. If you liked 'Band of Brothers' then this was its grand-daddy and even now is level pegging with modern 'classics'. Buy it or watch it just keep remembering it!
