You can see why English-language telly is so popular there: "where over 90% of people claim it as a second language. In 2008 a city councillor even suggested that English be recognised as an official second language in official correspondence, as one in 10 of Amsterdam’s residents spoke English but no Dutch." www.theguardian.com/world/2018/jan/26/dutch-cheese-heads-told-to-close-amsterdam-shopNo wonder they've had DVD releases before us!

Lot of comedies from days gone by were remade there. Porridge, Steptoe, Yes minister, Tom, Dick, and Harriet.
