Has anyone managed to get a copy of this in the UK? It looks like you can get is shipped from America, but it is a region 1 DVD format. Can you play these off a computer (I have a mac). Any advice on this welcome!

Hi Steve

On the Mac you can set the region for the DVD. If I remember correctly, your Mac will be set by default to region 2 but when you insert the Region 1 DVD, it will ask if you want to change the region. However, you are only allowed to change region 5 times, a which point your DVD player will be stuck on the last region selected.

If you are really brave you can usually find on the internet modified firmware for your DVD drive which will make it region free (Region 0), but you still have to contend with Apple's software which also has a region change counter. However this is easily periodically reset with a little programme you can download.

I hope this helps.
