I am such a sucker for this series and I just got word of a new 5 disc set with all 19 episodes. So, does anyone know of a UK retailer who's taking orders on this R1 set? I can't order it direct from the States coz I only has me a Debit card.

The set I'm referring to is the full 19 episodes not the BMG edition with eps 1-3 only.

It's ONLY available from http://www.anotheruniverse.com/mscldvd/
More info about all this from the links on that page! (also there is a thread about all this on the forums but I can't find it at the mo!)

Thanks Richie though your news doesn't sound too good for the likes of me.

If the boxset sells well (and so far it is), then its more than likely to get a full R1 release.
The sets universe are selling are just a test run to tread the water.

I got the distinct impression that any second run would not feature all the extras of the initial Limited Edition. Nevertheless I'd settle for any half decent version so long as I can freeze frame Clare and gaze endlessly in a vain hope of turning the clock back 20 years to when I was that age. (sigh)

There's no reason to think that a 2nd run would be any different, I certainly havent heard as such.
I cant imagine the entire disc full of extras just being thrown away for the sake of it.

What you're saying Jimmyboy would certainly make sense but what follows is taken from the e-mail notification I received this a.m. :
----------------------------------------------
LIMITED EDITION SET IS *LIMITED*
----------------------------------------------
AnotherUniverse.com believes that the entire pre-order run of 2,500
limited edition box sets will be sold out by the end of next week. This
means that if you have not already pre-ordered a set, your time is very
short! Once this production run has sold out, it will not be available
again. While Another Universe might produce a second run of the set,
they will never again produce this limited edition with the special
packaging and the bonus disc of "extras."

So while I can doubt this is true I don't want to take my doubts for granted and end up disappointed.

Hmmm, Interesting.
Dunno, sounds a bit George Lucas dont it !?.
It wouldnt surprise if if the official release had even more extra or something equally daft.

But I dunno, dont want to miss out on a MSCL boxset...........
Decisions, Decisions......
Does anyone know how much shipping is yet ?.
