Duty Free - The Complete Series (Box Set) (DVD)

Advantages: You can own them all
Disadvantages: costly

...friends. Lisa Kudrow- Plays Phoebe Buffey. Sings loads of crazy songs which match her personality. Completely hopeless but very funny. Matt Le Blanc- Plays Joey Tribianni. Obsessed about becoming an actor, who is just as dizzy as Phoebe, and never really getting anywhere in the acting world. Mathew Perry- Plays Chandler Bing. Who's only defence is his humour, very laid back, with many people in the series thinking he is gay. David Swhwimmer- Plays Ross Geller. A nerdy palaeontologist whose wife left him for A lesbian.

The great thing about this Box Set is that there is no particular order you must follow. There is a vast range of story lines for you to follow which do not overlap with episodes. You could start in reverse order and I guarantee unlike other programmes, you will fully understand from scene to scene without having a specific order to follow. This will allow you and others to view episodes individually at your own choice and leisure. Here you have an almost complete package of Classic British Comedy for both teenagers and adults.
