Hey Stu

I know it's probably more than you're looking to spend, but you can pick up the full Cosmos boxed set (7 DVDs) on Amazon for about $140AUS.

That's brand new.

I know, coz I'm about to buy the same.

Yeah.

I haven't seen any of it since I was blown away as a young teenager when it screened for the first time on TV in the UK.

I remember how cool it was, and how interesting and easy to understand.

Carl definitely had a gift. He was also an amazing visionary.

Will be great to see the series again and see how much of it I remember.

Good luck with finding it 2nd hand.

I only found the Cosmos series last year. A mate of mine had seen them on TV and lent me his DVD set. They are amazing...really amazing.

I found this at JB HiFi in 2005. I don't know if they are still around or not, but it cost $140 Aus. back then. It was great to see them again. Each episode was presented, then they had a few minutes of "Cosmos Update" tacked onto the end to show where knowledge had gone since the episode was created. Still great stuff.
