[Afamilyatwar-list] DVD Sets

[Scott Filderman]

Thank you!
The world-wide Web isn’t quite so worldwide!
I haven’t been able to uncover these sets. The running time differences are largely due to extraneous matter like Granada Colour Production cards at the beginning and end; the occurrence (but not consistently) of bumper cards in Series 3 (Part 1, Part 2 etc), and maybe 15–20 minutes of editing snippets, probably to accommodate X number of episodes on the single-layer Acorn DVDs (thank you, Mr. Renforth). There were only 3 series of AFAW; the juggling of distributors into 4 series was for extra DVD $$$.

For Scandinavia: (Region 2) Norway: Starmedia 2010 with removable Norwegian/Swedish/Finnish subtitles (guess also published in Sweden/Finland)Denmark: Midget Entertainment 2010 with Danish subtitles (think this is similar to the Norwegian edition, they have similar artwork) I read in another forum about different running times (ie. edited episodes) of the sets,for example Episode 4: Acorn 51:04, Dutch 52:01. I checked the Norwegian, it’s 52:33 (maybe because it includes the “Part 2/3” cards with short music?) Knut From: Scott Filderman via Afamilyatwar-list Sent: Friday, June 01, 2018 5:59 PMTo: Scott Filderman via Afamilyatwar-list Subject: [Afamilyatwar-list] DVD Sets As far as I know, there are only two DVD sets of AFAW, one on Acorn Media (no subtitles) and the other on Just Entertainment (removable Dutch subtitles). The Acorn set is available for Region 1 (USA) and Region 2 (which includes all Europe). The JE set is just for Europe. There is also a Region 4 (Australia/New Zealand) set, which appears to be the same as the Acorn set, as it has the same number of DVDs: 22. The JE set is 16. The Region 4 set has the ITV logo in the upper left corner.  Does anyone on this far-flung listserv have any other information?
