The Complete Forsyte Saga dvd??

Well!! It turns out that over in Europe, they have released a DVD that contains the entire 1st and 2nd series of the BBC's "Forsyte Saga" miniseries from early 2000 titled "The Complete Forsyte Saga"!! Inexpensive, too. This is NOT to be confused with "The Forsyte Saga, the Complete Series" from 1969, which I don't want.

See??

But it's not available as a complete series yet (or ever?) in the US. No, we have to pay a lot more and buy them separately. Pooh!!

Yepps, I have that box *smug* ;)
I heart Damian Lewis!
But can't you order it from amazon uk? I'm sure they'd ship to the states?

No, unfortunately, the US dvd players won't play European dvd's. We suck!!

But I think there's a way of 'unlocking' them or something. I know my tech-savvy man had something done to our DVD player when we bought it so it can play both systems. I have no idea about costs, perhaps it's cheaper to buy the US dvd's, but it might be worth it in the long run, it certainly has been for us, I order as much from amazon.com as I do from co.uk.
