| 428569 | 2006-02-08 21:16:00 | Can anyone suggest where to look for an oldish TV series on DVD? I'm looking for Lonesome Dove, which I know is available on VHS, but I no longer have a video player. Thanks. |

Thanks. There are two copies on http://www.realgroovy.co.nz/ Go the website and enter Lonesome Dove in Search. Note that both are region 1 so your DVD player will need to be multi zone. One is a collection with other movies included, so much more expensive. |

There have been older movies and other versions of this title. Amazon have Lonesome Dove - The Series (1994 www.amazon.com |

| 428575 | 2006-02-08 22:28:00 | Thanks folks. The NZ$30 price is great for exactly what I'm after. Dunno why I didn't think of Real Groovy myself. Cheers! PS - if anyone who's enjoyed the TV series but not read the book... read the book. It's excellent. (although I haven't really enjoyed any of his other novels). |
