    Any of you Scots into the Rebus TV series?

    I am wondering how many programs there were with Ken Stott as John Rebus. The first season had John Hanna as Rebus but he didn't fit the character that Ian Rankin created (in my opinion). I am reading the books now and want to watch the TV versions after I finish each book.

        No. It is an honest question to Scottish forum members in the OFF-topic forum from someone in Canada without access to BBC or ITV.

              Fair enuff and excuse my sarcasm too but anything "hedgehoggy" lately has been a wee bit overbearing! It is a good shot though, literally.

                Previous attempts at streaming from BBC have been met with "Sorry, not available in your area".

                  what about on youtube? (some programs do get uploaded at times)

                  or using a torrent site to see if you can get the episodes.

                    Just use a VPN located in the UK, then it should not be a problem to stream the series.

                    I use VyprVPN and it works very well. They have a 7 day money back policy, so you can always try it and see if it does the trick.
                    Protect yourself with exclusive features and proprietary technology. VyprVPN is the best VPN for hiding your IP address for streaming, privacy, and more!

                          ... Also, if you enjoy Stott playing an angst ridden police detective, then checkout his characters DCI Red Metcalfe and DI Pat Chappel in "Messiah" and "The Vice"

                            Thanks guys for all the hints and info. I will pursue some of them. (e.g. DVDs from the UK usually do not play on N.American DVD players (a "Zone" thing)).

                            Thanks for the other Ken Stott options too.

                            Now, back to the "Wonderful World of Hedgehogs" channel.
