As you know there are some DVD`s of this about to be released to me. These are official ones so I have these coming next week.Prodisc or Maverick

The following people asked for one
Beck UK
tmont France
Kim USA
I have e mailed these members for an address to post to(my cost)

I shall be posting these out myself to these members.

It could be a good idea if you want to watch this to contact these members if you live in the appropriate country to get in touch with them, so you can pass them round between yourselves. If you don`t have anyone to post them onto I would ask you return them to me please-- - these are free folks but I only have 4 in all and have saved one to copy if required
Best
Alastair

Alastair,
Any chance of having a Maverick surgery sent to Australia?
Or if it's not possible my daughter is working in Salcombe Devon till end of Oct, maybe you could send a copy to her for me?
I'll happily pay costs of course.
Cathy

Sir A, thanks for the offer. An an "efficiency freak," I was wondering if people can get/access/buy directly from the source? If I can help from the creative/production/IT side, let me know.

Thanks!

Hi Harrison,
No, there is no chance of purchasing these from the BBC, they were specially produced for Mr Lam and really a programme which is broadcast frequently between 10 a.m. and 11 a.m. in the morning on BBC1 TV programme called "City Hospital". Anyone who wants one, and wishes to do a copy is quite welcome to do so, there is a copy of floating around in the USA that people can copy and send to friends.

It doesn't actually show Mr Lam doing the surgery as such, it shows him discussing it with the patients, and also just the x-rays following the surgery. There is also a lot of other stuff about other people within the hospital which is nothing to do with Mr Lam or spine surgery. Mr Lam works in one of the world's most prestigious hospitals which is Guys in London, that is why this TV programme is so popular.
Best,
Alastair
