Kind of following on from my NYW post earlier.

Anybody got any good recomendations?

There doesn't seem to be a lot out there.

I've bought some of each of these

You need a DVD and TV set up able to work with NTSC Region 1 DVDs.

Listen to yourself.
Just because nobody is paying attention to your rants, there is no need to
throw your toys out the pram ;o)

Yes, you've now posted that link 3 times. Maybe I should have been more 
clear. I've looked for some UK Region 2 PAL DVDs and haven't had much luck. 
That's what I meant when I said "There doesn't seem to be much out there" - 
There are some DVDs available, but not a huge selection.
Thanks anyway for your contribution.

In that case, you will find little.

There are a few in the books and videos sections on the web sites of
Axminster Tools and Rutlands, possibly one or two others.

However, most are rather tired transcriptions of pretty old stuff from
ten years ago.

I mentioned the Taunton ones from the U.S.   Some of these use
distinctly U.S. techniques and equipment such as contractor saws with
stacked dado head cutters and twist base routers as opposed to the
plunge routers common in Europe and alternative methods to cut dados.
Others have minor detail differences such as guide types on bandsaws.

Nevertheless, most remain useful.

I also mentioned the Marc Adams videos.   These are well made and tend
to cover techniques rather than projects and are broader in nature.

Some of each of these are region 0 (i.e. not attached to a region) but
all are NTSC.

Since it is very easy to play NTSC region 1 DVDs on many DVD players
and PCs, this should be a non-issue.

An attractive exchange rate and reasonably low cost of shipment if you
order several, means that it is no issue to import.

I remember quite a lot from our woodworking classes at school. This is 
basically because the woodwork master used to carry a bit of two by two 
which he would throw at anyone he thought wasn't paying attention.

I wish I'd done more woodwork at school, would have been a lot more useful 
than Geography, or French.

I could do with finding an adult class for woodworking.

Skills in woodworking are in the hands rather than the head, so DVDs can
only show *what* to do,  teaching your hands to do it is another ball game.

So where do you live then, Outer Mongolia, seeing that just about any
FA / AE College will have such courses...

Actually I live in Milton Keynes, Looking at the MK Council website:
http://www.mkweb.co.uk/adulteducation/home.asp

Searching for "wood" I can get wood turning courses and wood carving 
courses. Neither of these is really what i'm after. I'll give them a ring 
anyway and see if they have anything else.

Thanks for the suggestion though.
