Anita, here is the german edition ,booklet and bonus.....
Are the same on english set?
Hallo, sometimes Felix is really busy. so I will answer your question. I hope not to late, but I have seen it now. The booklet ist not the same. There was a little bot confusion to it: http://www.fuenffreundefanpage.at/de_tv ... n.htm#reel but now the Booklet is different There are summaries of the episodes in the English version and a nice inerview of Gail Rendard (I have seen the booklet) --- and you have an commentary of the actors on the English Version. --- The German version owns a big Bonus DVD with several material:
- a long Interview with Marcus Harris and Oliver Rohrbeck
- Enid Blyton Day 2010
- two little ITV reports: Famous Five United: Marcus Harris and Jennifer Thanisch
- and a RTL report; it was the last time that Michael Hinz was in Tv and asked to his role
Greetings, Soenke
Hi, thanks for this.
A query- do the extra features have any information on the secret passages filmed in the episodes?
Thank you.
I`m thinking of buying the complete box set of these DVDs and I wondered if anyone could tell me whether the U.K. box set has English subtitles on all episodes? Many thanks.
Our grandson has just spent a week with us and we have been watching the 70s' series. He is six and absolutely loves them. I must say, I have enjoyed them too. He can't get over the fact that the end of every episode features everyone laughing! We also watched the CFF film, 'Five on a Treasure Island', and he was quite critical of the name changes: Aunt Margaret, Jan the 'fisherboy' and Kirrin House! He was in total awe when I told him I had met Gary and Marcus!
I feel sure that if Gary chanced upon this thread and read your comments he would happily confirm that meeting and getting to know you dear Nigel was a momentous, life changing event that he too will never ever be able to forget.

When I met Nigel & Julie at Old Thatch they were like a double act.
They had me in stitches.
I still smile even now remembering how funny they both were with their easy,hilarious,good natured banter.

I've met both Julie and Nigel (not at the same time, though) and can confirm they're both unforgettable. In the nicest possible way, of course.

So glad to know that young'uns are still enjoying this classic series. As a child watching one episode a week on TV, I didn't really notice that most stories ended with everyone laughing. It is noticeable when you watch a few on video or DVD though!
