I had heard about the series before but I had no idea that it was already on DVD for this region. Opinions about the quality seemed really varied - like any adaptation of a book (or rather, a series of books) there's always dissonance between people who want a literal adaptation and those that allow for the demands of a different medium. The "literalists" seemed to be particularly disappointed this time!
We've a got brand new JB Hi-Fi store opening down the road from us soon so I hope that will expand the range of videos we can buy. This one will be high on my list to get - even if I end up hitting it with fruits and various meats!
