Chrissie, if it's Region incompatibility can you crack your DVD player (or app, if it's on your computer) so that it's region free? You can google the model/make of your DVD player and see if there's a crack for it. I'd be happy to help if you PM it to me. Smile

I'm sure it was announced here that the Abbey Road DVD was not region protected. It may have been PAL but most modern TV's convert PAL to NTSC and vice versa anyway

I've just read that next week's Culture Show (22.07.09) is going to explore Elbow's collaboration with the Halle Orchestra. Hopefully there will be some footage of the gig.

I'm in the same situation, Grant Sad

) - but if any kind of recording is possible... (we need a "fingers crossed emoticon here)

At least you have the joys of going somewhere you want to go! I'm being dragged, heels dragging, to New Quay. I have nothing against New Quay, it's the people I'm going with! Razz

My dad (59, and acts like 70), my mum (48, and acts like she's a sage), and my grandparents who frown upon me, as i am a heathen, and have "lost" my faith in the lord. (I don't think i ever found it Razz

)

One problem with the tv idea! We're not allowed to take one on holiday with my family Sad

Sorry for late reply but I am currently in sunny Turkey for the next 5 weeks! sunny

Anyway, you should have no problem catching this as we have most of the UK channels here in Ireland, so it's just a question of finding somewhere to watch it.
Hope your weather is half-decent! Suspect
