Is the Police Spectacle episode being shared?

Was I alone in my anticipation of the Spectacle episode featuring the Police? I would have thought that this episode would have caused everyone in Policeland BONKERS with excitement. Ever since the show's taping (which I could not attend), I've been waiting to see the show with bated breath.

Now the show has aired, and I am a bit surprised that Police fans have not begun distributing this show around on DVD. I would guess that this show would be banned from Dime, but I'm sure other trackers would likely allow this show to be posted.

What's the deal? No interest in the show? Too busy with the holidays?

Help me! I needs my Spectacle. :)

EQ, I'm trying to get things worked out so that I can record it on, Wednesday 1/7/2009 on the Sundance Channel.

I'll let you guys know how I make out.

The 80hrs of the 80's VH1 classic that I recorded had some ghosting. So I need to tweak the settings.

Then I gotta figure out how to use my DVD Architect software. :oops:

I guess it is being aired in the US Jan. 7. Not too patient, am I. But just hearing about how great it is on HD has been driving me crazy.

Sorry EQ. I managed to watch it, but had no means of recording it. I know a London Coven member recorded it, but we're not too good with technology over here and haven't worked out how to get it from the impenetrable HD recording device into a shareable format. We suck :-(

I would love to have a copy of this being as I don't have the Sundance Channel. So, a *cough* to anyone who gets a hold of a copy. Also, I would LOVE a copy of the fan club DVD and if I have to do anything special for it (payment or whatever--within limits) I will.

THANKS!

If you don't have Sundance you'll be able to watch it on Hulu (www.hulu.com), but you'll have to wait for January. Sorry, EQ!

ahhhhhh. Hulu is a very cool site. Anything you wanna see that you shouldn't yet be able to see.....there you can see. See?



ETA: Wait. Strike that. Reverse it. Or better yet, just strike that. I think I was thinking of some other site that I think is spelled similar to that...I think. Think much do I?

EQ, while I realize your avatar <gag> is for the Birthday Girl's benefit, I have a feeling you aren't going to get much help until it disappears. Just sayin'. :roll:

Indeed. That thing is just.... no words.



Needs me some Spectacle too! I don't want to kill Damian (who I don't even know) with emails, so if anyone here is already on it, shoot me an email. Thanks!

Yeah. I saw Damian's posts over at TP.com but have not bothered him since I do not know him.

And the Hoff stays up until Schmaffy's birthday is over. And since I don't really know what day it is, Hoff will be up until Monday. :twisted:

Unless someone tells me they will be sending me a copy of the Police Spectacle. :twisted: :twisted:

Eeeek EQ, I am the incompetent Coven member who has the programme recorded on Sky + but no means to get it onto a PC :?

Should Santa bring me a recordable DVD I'll be happy to stay up for nights on end doing copies for my nutter buddies! Indeed, if anyone can get a DVD copy to me, I'll happily burn copies and send them to anyone who wants one :D

Damian is lovely. (He's also like a young Brian Blessed.) He has been kind enough to be willing to send a copy my way, but I somehow expect the US broadcast to occur before the US mail arrives.
