[Squawk 8888]

Where'd you get the tapes? I only caught a few episodes here, on the Comedy Network and PBS a few years back. I'm hoping that BBC Canada will re-run it sometimes. BTW the appearance of BBC Canada this spring is responsible for a tripling of my TV viewing.

Some of the shows mentioned above may be good, I have no doubt. However, I quit watching series tv when M*A*S*H and Dallas went off the air. The only network shows I care to watch is Survivor and Monday Night Football. Satellite tv has much, much more to offer, and it's better fare. Another thing that turned me off is the programmers practice of inserting promos for upcomming tripe in one corner of the screen and their logos in the other. The only one on satellite that doesn't do this is, (your not going to believe it), is NASA-Select tv. I hope they NEVER succumb to that practice. Most anything on the Discovery networks, History, A&E, GAC, CMT, and a few others gets my vote. As it is, the BIG NETS have nothing to pull me in.

Mail ordered them from a catalog along with the entire Blackadder series.

I think the catalog name was Signals or something.
It had a lot of BBC and PBS movies for sale in it.

I am saving up to get the Horatio Hornblower DVD set.
