BTW Have you got The Colditz Series. 1972 Series David McCallum
tried to buy it at Ioffer. but it has been over a week now and no reply
Torrents are corrupt so they stopped burning:) I have 11 episodes A great series this
Daisy | Yes it was a great series, although i was far too young to watch it at the time.
Sorry i don't have it,i have looked around to see if i could find it anywhere, but no luck.
I asked a friend who works at the BBC, to find out if it is available,the news is, they have NOT officially released it on DVD,and have no plans to do so, in the immediate future. So any available copy will probably be, a recording taken from T.V .The BBC sold the series to UK Gold,who reshowed it some years ago.It's unknown if they still have it in their archives at the moment, so any copy, someone is selling, may not be the best, so it's taking 'pot luck' if you want to buy it.
The complete series is listed here at £39.99. ( I don't know what the quality will be like or what region it is)

Thanks for your help , I have looked every where for it, and it seems that there are DVD taken from UK Gold, and as a last resort due to the fact they are still arguing about it being Made into DVD . and a lot of hassle, I am trying to buy it from I-offer , several of them on here , I realise they wont be 100% but I just would like to have it, cant wait for many years while they hassle about Legal points .
I got The Invisble man like this, about like watching a Tape quality. and I have ordered Tyrone Power, 4 of the movies on the list you gave me. these too are from TV ,
I dont mind a drop in quality as long as I can see my old friends:)
Thanks again
Daisy |

If you don't mind the VHS standard quality.

I actually baught Sappire and Steel it was only 15 pounds This is a strange series. one has to really pay attention:) David and Joanna worked so well together. it was good to see her less zany Beautiful lady.
Thanks again Brit for trying. as I say I downloaded 11 Colditz then the next few had problems with timing and burning. I wanted to send a set to my daughter she loves all things David , (re found:) I will give this 'Ioffer 'a few more days then I will re order it from one of the others they have there.
Two studios made Colditz and there is where we have problems with the making of the DVD release.
