An Klondike

Someone asked me if I had the second series of An Klondike which aired in February. All I have are .mp4 files recorded off the internet stream and they will not convert to .avi. 

All Round To Mrs. Brown's

What do you do if you run out of ideas for your popular comedy show and you're too cheap to hire writers? You jump onto the reality-talk show bandwagon. This will be returning for a second series but in the meantime here's Graham Norton's recent Red Nose Day special which will not fit onto the disc for the current Series 21.

Lucky Man - Disc 2

Fantasy crime action-thriller Lucky Man returned for a second series.

Blank check

I'm out of blanks until next week. Normally I get about a 4 to 6 day delivery, but the last order placed April 22 won't arrive until at least the 2nd. Thumbs down to the postal service. Good quality blanks are getting more difficult to come by and the price keeps going up as the competitive market spirals down and fewer distributors carry blank media. Taiyo-Yuden saw the handwriting on the wall several years ago and sold out to JVC. Then JVC woke up and dropped disc manufacturing. CMC stepped in and purchased the technology from JVC and have kept it going, but it has obviously become an aftermarket item. Save that photo above. You can show it to your grandkids when they ask you if they really used to sell TV shows, movies and music on little plastic discs.

Hank Zipzer - Disc 2

Henry Winkler's Hank Zipzer returned to the BBC last year with a third and final series. Hank is just growing up too fast and is now taller than The Fonz and probably about to start shaving. Other well-known adult actors in this include Felicity Montagu, Neil Fitzmaurice, Javone Prince, Juliet Cowan. Think I saw Dominic Coleman in there somewhere.....but then is there any show he doesn't pop up in?

Prime Suspect 1973 + SS-GB

***.... sigh ...*** let's see.....what do we have here?

Prime Suspect 1973....yes, a prequel to Prime Suspect taking a look at Jane Tennison as a teenage crime fighter.....or something. 

Prime Suspect 1973

Then there is SS-GB, a costume drama that takes place in Nazi-occupied Britain after German scientists drain the English Channel allowing the Wehrmacht to cake walk into England.   

SS-GB

some radio

(Please refer to this as "Agatha Raisin radio")

About 150 half-hour radio programs on a data DVD. These are .mp3 files. If you pop it into a DVD disc player they should play fine. What you do with the files is your business. If you don't know how to transfer them to your smart phone, or cloud, or flash drive or any other device to listen to them while driving, walking, working, etc., that's your problem and not mine.  

Agatha Raisin - all 18 episodes aired between 2004 and 2011 with Penelope Keith as Agatha. I think these stick a bit closer to the M C Beaton stories than the TV show does. There was a pilot episode in 2003 but I don't have it.  

All Those Women - all 8 episodes - about four generations of women living under one roof. With Sheila Hancock (eps 1 - 4) and Marcia Warren (eps 5 - 8), Lesley Manville.........

All Those Women

Clare in the Community - all 68 episodes of this long running show starring Sally Phillips as social worker Clare Barker. With Liza Tarbuck, Richard Lumsden......based on the popular comic strip.

When the Dog Dies - 24 episode comedy starring Ronnie Corbett.

 When The Dog Dies

Speaking of Ronnie Corbett, it appears that following the release of his late 60's TV comedy No That's Me Over Here a couple years ago, his early 70's follow ups Now Look Here and The Prince Of Denmark will also be released on DVD. 

Schitts Creek - Disc 3

Anita

Welsh language comedy Anita returned for a second series. This is not a sitcom with a laugh track and one-liner zingers, etc. It's more of comedy-light drama. Speaking of Welsh drama, someone asked me recently if I knew if there was going to be an English language version of Y Gwyl (Hinterland) Series 3. I assume there will be but I can find no information on that at all.
