Amazon Verified Purchase
I bought this from Amazon and received it on 9-Jul-2008. The version I received had no technical problems.

This complete collection of both The Herbs and The Adventures of Parsley for less than £9 is excellent value and a lot less confusing to buy than the series 1 and series 2 and part-mixed series of Herbs and Parsley DVDs. To buy the two complete series collections as separate DVDs, at the current prices available on Amazon, costs over £50.

Ordered this at the end of September '08, and I am glad to say that it appears to play just fine - hopefully the DVD has been re-mastered to resolve the fault mentioned by the reviewer below, and I wasn't just lucky when I tried it.

I have very fond memories of this from my childhood and it was delightful to meet the eccentric characters once again.

Seeing these again brought back some happy childhood memories! If you are a fan of those classic children's programmes from the 60's and 70's, such as the Clangers and The Magic Roundabout, this was my personal favourite and full of the same gentle humour and charm, which time has not changed. With around 50 episodes it is excellent value for money, well packaged and with some laugh out loud episodes and quirky stories and songs. The version I got from Amazon still has the episode, 'Miss Jessop Tidies Up' cutting short before the end, but Amazon say they're onto this now and will sort the matter out. A world away from today's children's programmes, this will stir the imagination and I can't recommend it highly enough for those with children or as a gift for someone. Seeing it was placed around #22 in the top 100, was a pleasing surprise for something originally aired so long ago. Enjoy it!

Entertaining blast from the past!
The dvds arrived next day, very impressed with service. Good old Parsley the lion - as entertaining today as he was all those years ago and my little girl loves him too now.

Beautiful stuff here!
The Herbs offers up that strange yet typically British combination of G&S and obstinate paganism (check the music and herb-lore). Read more
