At bloody last the DVD's turned up.
BUT
It has dutch hardsubs.

But it doesn't look like a VHS to DVD transfer, you just can't switch the bloody things off. If I hit the subs button on my player, it shows "Subs : Dutch (on)", but hit it again (which usually switches them off) and the 'forbidden' symbol is displayed.
It does have DD5.1 sound, the picture's a little grainy but good quality.
Still interested in a rip?
