Your regular DVD player won't play this if you live outside the UK and surrounding countries. My MacBook Pro gave me the option to switch regions only four times (I'm in the US), but The Darling Buds of May was worth it! I viewed this series back in the 90s and have always wanted to see it again. Very idyllic with all the good feels of a simpler time in a happy-go-lucky family's country life. One main reason was to see Catherine Zeta-Jones in her earlier days, when I felt she had so much potential. All the actors were well cast and carried the story line perfectly. So glad I purchased this series!
