I'm so excited! In a few days I'm gonna be getting a tape from Boobergorg through a trade with UK episodes of Fraggle Rock on it! I know it's not gonna be in a different Language, but it has a different Doc on it called "The Captain" I can't wait to see these. But has anyone out there seen any of the other coproductions of Fraggle Rock and what the Doc in those countries are like?

Here in Canada we had the same version as the U.S. (or technically, the US had the Canadian version) but I think there may have been an alternate one produced for Radio-Canada (the French CBC). I've also seen the UK version - the actor playing "Doc" is in lighthouse, right?

I actually find The Captain a bit boring, I must admit. The French 'Doc' and Croquette (Sprocket) seem funny! Although I cant understand what they are saying, Its very slapstick.

Doc (Gerry Parkes) will always be the best!

I guess there aren´t many pictures or episodes floating the net right? I mean about the other actors?

Fulton Mckay was the captain. He's mega-famous so you can probably find pictures of him through a search.
