Hi Stuart Ordered it from atlanticdvd.com.au along with the first set as they had them on offer for about half the usual price but there back up to full price now and I`m still waiting for the second set. There available from all the usual Australian Region 4 sites along with the third set that was released this month. You may also be interested to know that the complete Return of The Saint has also been released over there also with some good extras. The same Australian company are due to start releasing Danger Man soon and this will also have better extras than the UK release. And still with The Saint there is a Region 1 release of the `movie` Vendetta For The Saint made up from two episodes of the series and released theatricaly in some countries that also has a Roger Moore commentary.

Izombie - you`re a mine of useful information. I picked up Series 1 on R2, and I`m enjoying it so much I just know that I`ll have to continue on to Series 2. Good tip! I`ll just wait for the price to dip again ...
Danger Man - R2 currently only £23 R2 on PLAY I think. Haven`t ordered it as I`ve got such an enormous backlog of viewing to do! How`d do you keep up?!?!

A bit more (hopefully) useful information for you Stuart, the Region 2 box set contains Series 1 & 2 even though the packaging lists it as Series 1 only. The Australian sets are not in complete seasons as there in lots of about 24 episodes, the first box contains all of series 1 and part of 2, set 2 contains the rest of series 2 and part of 3 and so on, thats why I sold my region 2 set.
As for Danger Man, I`ve already got the complete series, season 1 on region 2 and the rest on region 1 so I may pass on the region 4.
Quote: How`d do you keep up?!?! Put simply - I don`t! I`m a bit of a vintage TV junkie and have a stockpile of TV series to watch that I pick up when there cheap. Working my way through all 4 series of The Sweeney at the moment then I`ve got Starsky and Hutch series 1 & 2, The Survivors series 1 & 2, Kung Fu series 1, The Rifleman and the Saint sets already mentioned. Keep telling myself I shouldn`t buy anymore and then I see another bargain. Films on the other hand I try and keep on top of (well almost). ;)
