    Keeping Up Appearances (disc replaced?)

    That is the one with the messed-up picture quality (fake film-like appearance). I see that I never revealed what happened with my defective disc back in 2015. I ended up contacting the US BBC/Warner office and they sent me an entire replacement boxset (not just the problem disc) for free. All I...

    Keeping Up Appearances (disc replaced?)

    I bought it new, sealed on eBay, and the seller claims 60-day money-back guarantee, so I guess I'm going to start there. There are several sellers on eBay selling this set all for around the same price, so if he won't simply do a swap, I might send it back and get one from a different seller, or...

    Keeping Up Appearances (disc replaced?)

    For better or worse, I've found out from you, from another fan who owns all three sets (the original US set, the UK one and the new US 'remastered' one). All three sets have the episode captions on every series one and two episode, so no luck there. Basically, they used the same masters for all...

    Keeping Up Appearances (disc replaced?)

    I don't have the set and can't confirm this for you, but based on past action by BBC (Americas)/Warner, I can make an educated guess that the caption is likely still there. Usually when they re-release a BBC title, it's merely a repackage, nothing more. Now, as to how it happened, I have a...
