Well I am a big Catherine Tate fan. As far as I am concerned, that is second only to Smith and Jones in terms of pure comic genius. I am waiting for the Smith and Jones DVD to be released.
Anyway, I bought the Catherine Tate DVD series 1 for my sister in the US. I sent it over and she tells me it doesn't play. According to her it has this black and white venetian blinds effect. Now that sounds to me like a PAL/NTSC problem, but here is the deal: when I was there last year I bought my folks a brand new TV, DVD, and VCR player. I researched the DVD player very carefully before I chose it. I made sure it could play anything: any region, any disc. Am I right in saying that this can't be a region problem, because the disc does play. Is there something I can tell her to try? I have already suggested that she tries it on the PC. I checked the disc here before I sent it and I know it is fine because it played here at home.
I thought that sort of problem only happened with tapes...
