[Geysers] BBC Show (Schwarz)

[Debbie Sjodin]

The fact that its coded Region 2 (PAL) means most of our machines in this
country won't be able to play it.

on Regions

*	Product Ref: bbcdvd2858

Here's the link so you can check yourself:

Fortunately I managed to record all three complete at the time.

 

Cheers

 

Derek

     The BBC people told us that the geyser gazer segment would probably
never be seen in the United States because each hour of programming has
about 10 minutes of commercials.  The 3 shows about Yellowstone are 50
minutes long and each one has a 10-minute "extra" so in the UK it fills the
whole hour (without commercials).  The extra 10 minutes can easily be
dropped when shown on Discovery or other American channels.  It appears that
the only way to see the segments with Jeff Henry and the geyser gazers is to
buy the DVD with all 3 parts.  I do not know when this DVD might be
available.
