Anyone know if this is available on DVD or Video in the USA? Can't find it on BBC America or in Best Buys.
Dunno.

I've got one of the series on video so if your VCR can play British vids then I'll gi' yer a lend!!!

I've just had a look on Amazon and no joy I'm afraid (

You mean a region 1 version?

You expect me to know the answer to that question :roll: You are talking to someone who has a clue about these things. If this means to play on an American VCR or DVD player, then yes :)

Debs, thanks for the offer but none of our VCRs play British videos. :(

Have you tried hacking your DVD player? (i.e. changing it to be multi-region?)

As far as I can tell from a google or two, TRF has not been issued in a region 1 version, so you either need to get someone to convert it for you, hack your DVD player, or buy a new DVD player which you can either hack to be multi-region or just set to region 2 (which is what the Royle Family DVDs are)
Thanks, Monster )
I've got the Best of The Royle Family on UK DVD and then Series 2 on UK DVD. When we move into the new house you can come over and watch them on our region-free player if you like Ben. (you could bring sausage rolls.....) Him is also working on converting my UK DVDs to US format on his computer which has a DVD something or other....

(PS. if you have a computer that will play DVDs you can set it to play UK ones forever if you like, instead of US).

STel.
Yes, we can play DVDs on the computer. Never thought of that. Thanks very much, Stel. I will let hubby know. )
