: Merijn, regarding the video, do you know if the UK VHS tapes will play on US VCRs? I just checked amazon.com and they don't have and neither does half.com.

Hi Ghostwriter,
Long time no see.
It depends on your VCR whether or not you can playback PAL VHS. I know some VCRs in the US can play that format without problems. Reverse, a lot of the VCRs in Europe can successfully playback NTSC VHS.
So I suggest to check the specs of your VCR if it can do it or not.
There is also a DVD of Cubby house available in the UK.
With DVD it is much easier to playback on different system.
Computers are almost always able to playback the other format. The only thing to watch out for is to check if your set top player DVD is a region free player. And if you are using computer software to playback DVD there is always a crack to make the player regionfree. You need to look for the right websites that have these things available.
The film is well worth seeing!
Good luck!
Merijn
