I was very fortunate to be asked to contribute tikis and set design for the new series The Starter Wife (starring Debra Messing from Will & Grace) which premieres with a special two-hour episode Thursday, May 31 at 9/8C on USA which was filmed on the Gold Coast, Australia recently - if anyone out there can get me a copy or post pics I would be really grateful - am not sure if we will get to see the program down here - and I am guessing if we do eventually get it my grand kids are more likely to be watching it than me... it takes a while for stuff to get to us. |

Thanks for the heads up...I will catch it. I don't think if we video tape it in the USA, that you can watch it in Oz....isn't it out of synch somehow? If someone can let me know how to tape it so you can view it (like is there a special type of video tape to use) then I would be happy to tape it and send it your way. :) |

Yup, our video tapes run clockwise, and down under, they run counter-clockwise. :P :lol: :P |

There used to be a problem with Australian video players having problems with the difference between NTSC and PAL, but most video players sold in Australia can cope with this these days. If your video player can't cope with NTSC, then I'm sure you can get it converted somewhere, but I doubt you'll have a problem. |

USA uses NTSC, Oz uses PAL, but DVDs should be ok if you don't code them, which you wouldn't as I believe that is something only manufactures do to protect their copyrights. At the very least you should be able to watch a burned DVD on your computer, VHS on the other hand would be useless. |

Right on Marcus! However, you only get half man-props though 'cause this is a chick-flick, yes? -G |

Thanks everyone for the feedback - if someone could put it on a DVD I am sure I could watch it on either my DVD or computer - I have purchased US DVDs and they go OK down here (even though the toilet still flushes clockwise) |
