The discussion of the Alien series of films and the props used in them is the aim, but if it's got Big Bugs and Big Guns, then they are welcome too!

A friend of mine is a Big fan of Lost and as he has Virgin TV he doesn't get Sky 1 as part of his package of channels any more so I'm recording it from Sky for him.

Sadly I've just checked the finale episode and it's recorded without any sound. This is a glitch in my Sky box that I've had for a while now, and the only way to correct it is to turn it off and on again. Of course when I'm working away as I have been the past 5 weeks there's no way of knowing the problem has happened or to correct it.

So if anyone has the final episode(s, was it a 2 parter?) and can put them on a DVD for me I'd be eternally grateful - you might even get some cheese! ;)

I know Clanger and Mole have helped my friend out in the past and he and I are very grateful, fingers crossed that someone's got this episode too.

Thanks!

Harry

Haven't got the last Lost Harry, sorry. :cry:

I taped the special afterwards, a round up of the series and a Q&A with the producers I think, I still have that.

Still have the BSG on the planner if you still needed it?

Cheers,

Andy

Ah, yes - the Q&A would be great Andy as would the BSG stuff. :)

PM me and let me know what you need back in the way or blank DVDs and postage.

Harry

Thanks Vicky, that would be great - although if you're downloading them from the Sky website or something is that something I could do myself? If you could give me some pointers to how to do it it'd be saving you a job. ;)

I've never tried Sky's online content player so I don't know if it's possible to download anything from them. I'll probably just find a torrent somewhere and download that.

Is it the last episodes from Season Four I need to get? I don't watch it so no idea where Sky have got to.

Ah, cool. I don't know anything about the Torrent stuff really so if you could do it that would be cool. I think it's the last two episodes he's missing.

Thanks Vic! :)

No probs. I'll get what I can and pop it in the post to him. Think I've still got his address...

Hey Harry,

I can't put shows on DVD and it seems you're sorted with Vicky sending him the episode but I thought I'd offer a little tip on a site I use. I have Virgin TV too and needed to watch all of Season 4. A friend of mine told me about www.ninjavideo.net which has absolutely loads of shows on there. I watched every single episode on there and they're all uploaded from HD channels so the quality is perfect.

So if he has an internet connection he might like to have a look here.


All the best,

Martin

Thanks Martin, that looks like a great site - although I can't seem to get it to load the episodes I want at the moment; there seems to be an error on the website. I'll keep trying. :)

In the meantime Vicky, keep going with your project! ;)

Harry

Hi Harry,

Above each video there is a link to download the Ninja Video helper which you need to have in order to watch the videos. It's a small file so try that and then let a video stream a little before clicking play - that should work :)

Ah, thanks Martin - I thought the Video Helper was something like DownloadHelper for Firefox, I didn't realise it was needed to view content directly.

Thanks! :)

Harry

I thought I'd throw in this tidbit as well...

Not sure if you know already, but at many bookstores (at least in my corner of the world) you can find...

LOST: The magazine.

Seems like it would be a good accessory, for the ultimate LOST fan.
