Thanks for the tip, Chris, I'll look for it on eBay. Green Wing hasn't been shown on TV in Spain yet, I guess some British comedy series are too difficult to translate - British humour is so very specific - and they are best left in English (I'm still laughing about the Monty Python sketch were cannibal blancmanges from outer space invade England and turn all Englishmen into Scots to empty the country of good tennis players, so they can win the Wimbledon tournament; everybody knows that the Scots are the world's worst tennis players
)
One of my all-time favourites were "The Young Ones", I never saw anything crazier in my entire life! What a riot they were!
