Hi I have been on the net all morning trying to find a dvd of a tv series that was on in the 1980 for Lee's mum she has been looking for this for many years n we have had no joy. I wondered if anyone could help me out, as it was never relesed in the UK. It called playing for time.

Thanks in advance. :cake: :cake:

From what I can see, it has never been released either on video or dvd. Which is a shame, because I remember the original, which was very, very good.

Sorry we couldn't help Sammy!

There are loads of old TV series I want on DVD that haven't been released. Very annoying! No doubt they will catch up eventualy!

The closest I could find, is that it's avaliable on VHS, but from the American Amazon site, and its also from the marketplace sellers and not Amazon itself. :neutral:

Hope this helps, here's the link:
