Talk:The Professionals (TV Series)

I just started watching the first series, and I added the the guns that I've seen so far that weren't already on the list.--Phillb36 03:38, 8 November 2008 (UTC)

Is the whole series available on DVD yet? I've seen a few clips of this show before and thought it looked interesting. Of course, we don't get it here in the States. -MT2008 20:00, 16 January 2009 (UTC)

I'm actually in the States! I'm able to watch it as I have a region-free DVD player with PAL/NTSC converter. The whole series is available as a box set on Amazon UK, which is where I bought it. I was able to get it for under 50 bucks by using a special link on the Professionals Forum page, which allows you to purchase the set for a huge discount. It's quite a deal. The only problem is I don't really have the ability to screencap this page. I'm hoping there is another IMFDB member that will be able to do it.--Phillb36 22:59, 16 January 2009 (UTC)

Most DVD players that come standard on PCs will play DVDs from any region. I am responsible for screencapping the Ultimate Force page, and I did that on my laptop even though the DVDs were Region 2. Point is, you really should see if you can play the DVDs on your computer if you haven't tried already. Once you know, there's a whole bunch of free media players you can use that will take screencaps easily.

I might at some point order this show myself, but that's unlikely to happen any time soon. -MT2008 23:20, 16 January 2009 (UTC)

Well, I'll be damned..the DVDs work on my PC. Probably will be quite a while before I get around to doing any screencaps, though.--Phillb36 21:24, 17 January 2009 (UTC)

Fair enough. Whenever you want to, though, please feel free to consult with me for advice on media players to use, format of screencaps, etc. -MT2008 21:33, 17 January 2009 (UTC)

Doesn't Windows Media Player, that comes loaded on my PC, have a screencap function? I haven't tried it, but it's my understanding that it does.--Phillb36 22:05, 17 January 2009 (UTC)

Photo of M-3 Carbine removed

I removed the M-3 photo as it really doesn't resemble the carbine in the show at all. I'm pretty sure that it's simply a modified M-1, so a picture of that would be more appropriate.
