Hey Guys,
Here is the link for The Storyteller on DVD, One problem is that it is in Dutch.

There are Three DVD's with Three Episodes on Each, making it the complete series.

See ya

Thanks for the link Warrick! When were these released?

Is there any way to translate the text on these pages? Normally, I use the services of Babel Fish, but they don't have a tool to translate Dutch into English, and the Systran translator doesn't translate it very well.

Really what I want to know is if they ship to the US....

Scott,

The only Dutch Translaters i know of are Joggy and Julia - LOL!

These came out in February 2002.

I dont think anyone knew about them, Until Hans came across them one night.

Storyteller DVD

Are the episodes on the discs in Dutch or English??

Anyone know if they are world compatible?? meaning no region coding?

The JHC really needs to get on this and release the company library on DVD

Stulz,

Hey,
They are European Code, I think it is Region 2 ?

They are in the original English with Dutch Subtitles,That cannot be removed.

Thank you thank you thank you for posting this info! I've been trying to find the storyteller for ages.

The DVDs are Region 2 PAL. The subtitles are burnt in, but not too distracting (and quite educational from time to time!).

I ordered my copies from BOL netherlands.

They have the original Storyteller DVDs available here:
Vol. 1
http://www.nl.bol.com/is-bin/INTERS...gLevel=1&ParentLogID=&LogLevel_BOL_OWNER_ID=1
Vol. 2
http://www.nl.bol.com/is-bin/INTERS...gLevel=1&ParentLogID=&LogLevel_BOL_OWNER_ID=1
Vol. 3
http://www.nl.bol.com/is-bin/INTERS...gLevel=1&ParentLogID=&LogLevel_BOL_OWNER_ID=1


...and they also have the Greek Myths all on one DVD here:

I also found this translation site useful for navigating the Dutch pages:

Hey cool, thanks for posting that!

So you had no problem getting BOL Netherlands to ship to the US? (assuming you are in the US, you have no location specified)

Apologies for not being clearer - I'm in the UK, they certainly had no problems posting there.

I got them within a week of ordering, which was pretty impressive!

Just find the DVDs you want - search under Storyteller and they all come up, or use the direct links I posted earlier. Make sure you get the DVD ones though!

You want to stick them in your basket ("In Winkelwagente") - the yellow button on the top right.

Once they are all in you basket you want to "Ga verder met bestellen" on the bottom right.

The tricky part is that you have to register with BOL.nl before you can check out.
On the line that says "Ik ben nieuw bij bol.com" click "Ga verder met bestellen" again (the upper one of the two).

On the form on the next page, fill out your details - most should be fairly easy. Entries with ticks are mandatory.

The easiest thing to do is to follow the process through for a dummy purchase on the UK BOL site - the site layout is identical so you can easily work out what buttons do what!

All 4 DVDs (3 + 1) come to about 80 euros altogther including shipping, or around 50 UK pounds altogether.

It's well worth the hassle, believe me!
