Interesting, thanks John. Do you know if these are these dubbed copies or English language (with removable subtitles)? Francis Durbridge serials used to be a stable of BBC drama for many years when I was growing up! I bought the release of Melissa a few years ago and enjoyed it very much. I only wish there was a box set of all the existing BBC serials (which have a surprisingly high survival rate).

This is the thread on UK shows only released abroad: www.zetaminor.com/roobarb/showthread.php?43005-British-TV-shows-available-exclusively-outside-the-UK/page8
'Thursday's Child' sounds interesting,too.
I should have said about language; it's said on one site at least that the release includes an English dub,indicating that the deal with the BBC includes the soundtrack.
...which I actually found quite confusing.Why would that be called "a dub"?

Bought this and would definitely recommend it. I wasn't familiar with it so bought it blind thanks to Roobarbs.

Is this the UK version (i.e. English language / not dubbed and no German subtitles you can't switch off or anything?)? I'm thinking about getting that one if so.

Original English language audio,and no problem with subtitles.

Slightly late answer...
