Just wondering out of interest. Did your copy of MW have the original cover from the VHS, or is it the newer cover with the blue background, Michael with his arms stretched out?
Personally, I prefer the copy of Moonwalker with the original cover from the video.
Colditz (1972, 10 disc DVD set) - Got it from CeX, after trading in some other DVDs. Watched it all on Freeview a few years ago, and am really looking forward to re-watching it.

Cruddy sets, cliched dialogue, unconvincing accents and am-dram production values and yet despite all that.......utterly gripping. I had similar issues with Secret Army but worked past that (and the curse of Allo Allo) and am half-way through that now and it`s just as good.

Gripping is the word I would use to describe it, too. Despite it's faults, I don't believe it could be done better now. Having said that, I think the sets and dialogue are fine. Some of the accents are a bit dogy, though. Also, Bernard Hepton's head always appears to be very narrow for some reason!
Secret Army........ I would quite happily re-watch all of that, too, if it was on Freeview again. I can't afford the DVDs. I've long since consigned Allo Allo to the past. Yet there was a time when I liked that show, and wouldn't have wanted to ever see Secret Army again. My tastes have changed.
Additional:-
Danger UXB - Very good. Would have been excellent without the naff Judy Geeson romance bits.
Wish Me Luck - First two series, poor. Series 3, not bad.

If you no longer need the files you can go over them to.
Have you got it yet? (The player) is it any good? Always wanted a blu-ray external drive..........i'm tempted.
