OK one and all. The party who is currently negotiating with Enoki has asked me to suggest potential distributors for the series on DVD, preferably with contact details. My immediate thought is Revelation (who are releasing Terrahawks), along with Kult TV/Contender Video who do Farscape. Any more for any more? This is pretty much crunch time because the TV stations various haven't shown a great deal of interest. Over to you...

Fabulous Films <http://www.fabulousfilms.co.uk/>, who've released Monkey! and The Water Margin recently, which were shown on UK TV at around the same time as Star Fleet.[Happosai]

Gareth, Happosai, thanks - that's two more for the list. I've also thought of Manga Entertainment as was. Any more for any more?

I doubt any of the UK anime distributors would be interested, because:a) it isn't animeb) it's oldc) they're usually just a puppet of a US company(I had to laugh when you said Manga Ent., Andy...not exactly the darlings of UK anime fandom)I assume you're only looking for UK-based distributors.[Happosai]

Yes, well - as far as Manga Entertainment goes, any port in a storm, eh?! Don't forget - this show's already dubbed into English for them ;) Your point about the other anime studios is well taken, however. I think it's the like of Revelation who would take it if anyone. There may be scope for distribution in Europe as a whole (given what Region 2 encoding covers) - but then, the rest of Europe got their own versions to varying degrees...
