DVD?


I've looked for this on DVD, but was only able to find it in Region 4 (Australia) format. I'm in the US. I find it a little strange that it hasn't even been released in Region 2 format, let alone Region 1. Very disappointing. I just can across this on History International - they air early on Sundays, but I don't know if they'll repeat it again soon so I can record the episodes I've missed.

Good news. The U.S. DVD release is scheduled for 6/2/2009. See the story at http://www.tvshowsondvd.com/news/Adventure-English-DVDs-Announced/1161 3.

Yup, it is. I just watched it. Can't say that I enjoyed it, however. Most of the basic information I knew already. I'd rather read a book.

I just bought it from Amazon.com: http://www.amazon.com/Adventure-English-Melvin-Bragg/dp/B001O7R75E. It was $79.99 (USD, plus tax/shipping, etc.).

If you see my comment from almost three years ago, I've been waiting a while for this.

I felt the 1986 documentary The Story of English was better.

Its that man again!!
