i love the nero wolfe TV series! i really do! yet i cannot seem to be able to get hold of any dvds that will play in the UK. its sooo frustrating, and im desperate! i cant afford a multi regional DVD player, so does anyone think they can help?!
on the upside, the films themselves are absolutely outstanding. I've heard criticisms, because the same cast is used for various shows, but I think this only goes further to show the capabilities of the cast. Maury Chaykin, Timothy Hutton, Colin Fox (who is actually British, would you believe?) and the crew playing Saul, Fred and Orrie are also on top form throughout the series.
It is this reason more than any other that I need to get hold of these films/shows! I've spent years trying to find them, and shockingly, no-one in the UK stocked them for UK DVD players.
In conclusion, a must watch series or two, with not one flaw, and truly a model on which book-to-TV transitions should take place.
