Great, thanks. I was waiting for this - I saw it on DVD. Previously, I got Warlords and Battle of wits from there.

...yup it is both Part 1 AND Part 2 so two movies combined running time......this is suppose to be the most expensive movie made in China...


...you can log in using your Amazon U.S. account but 2 things:

1. you will be paying shipping to U.S. no matter how much you buy (it isn't too bad).

2. since it is a foreign transaction you will pay the currency conversion fee with the credit card you use......there are maybe 2 credit card left that charge nothing....most charge 3% to convert and Amex used to be 2% but they hiked it to 2.7%....

THanks for the info on the Amazon UK ordering!
Now if I can only remember what that UK-only DVD documentary was.... It might've been a travel dvd. Think think think...

EDIT
Ahhh. Remembered it. Phewww!! Now I can stop thinking about it
It was a Paul Merton in China dvd.
