As far as I know it is illegal for any company to sell any movie in the Britain without BBFC approval. As R1 disks are American they will not have a BBFC approved rating and therefore it is illegal.

Play247 get away with is by being based in Jersey, which has its own laws and is therefore not included in the BBFC`s jurisdiction. Play247 are quite clever.

I have never ordered from Future Entertainment but there prices do look good. If concerned E-mail them and ask them yourself. I would be interested in the response you get so if you could post it here it would be cool.

I have ordered from Future Entertainment, the discs are obviously sent from a UK location, the label on the jiffy bag states a PO Box in Sittingbourne. But, the invoice slip has the company name as A.G. Express, Mississauga, North America. At the prices they charge, mine is not to reason why...
