As an American and a huge Armitage fan, I was wondering where we could find this series in the States. I don't know much about the series in terms of where it's being shown, but from what I've read it looks like it's on the BBC (obviously) in Engliand and not here. I don't have BBC America either. Is this out on DVD yet or being shown here, or have I somehow missed its American debut?

Give it a few months to show up on our shores. The broadcast window seems to be shorter these days (remember when we had to wait a year to see BBC programs in the US?? and I am talking about EastEnders just ten years ago). We saw Bleak House less than 3 months after it concluded on BBC (but then it was a BBC/WGBH co production so maybe that's the reason for the short wait)
I am in the US also but a kind friend sent me a dvd recording of the series. I am hoping a wider audience will get to see this and not only subscribers to BBC America.
Many BBC productions end up on youtube (The Impressionists is on right now); they get pulled periodically but many get reposted, so keep checking.
Also, my public library offers a lot of BBC productions on DVD. If your library doesn't, ask a librarian about interlibrary loans, an inexpensive way to borrow from library systems around the country.
