sorry posted the wrong torrent file initially (23GB old version) this is
the right one for this program (29GB)
We bring you the Complete 68 episode collection of all included in
the 5 Seasons of this program (see the above link) in addition to a 25th
anniversary special program found on the DVD extras).
The separate "Thomas and Sarah" offshoot series are not included here
Upstairs Downstairs program was the most formative in my own upbringing
into British culture - equally I submit - to my earlier years in British
Boarding school.
There is no achievement that matches what is British competence in civilized
Christianly engagement on this earth, and we think it is no less that a
Christianly mission to crusade in favour of bringing such fine programming
as this to you all that want to partake of it all, and help spread the great
word.
The examples of fine articulation in this best of British (relatively)
contemporary Television programming - are the best as we have achieved.
Lord Bellamy is a man much to be respected and emulated in what are
his basic instincts and Gentlemanly example to all the men of Europe
certainly. There is no substitute for having the best basic character
and willingness to be good and decent - add to this such fine programming
beginning at the earliest ages - and we'd make I think for an even better
world than what we have so far achieved - given that we seem to be in a
period of sliding away from it all - as though our foundations hadn't taken
a sound enough hold on our sense of commitment to continuing on with
the fine examples set here. All have to learn to better respect the man -
despite his good decent nature - or rather because of it - (I submit)!
This is the greatest of all the British programs in my own personal view
and it is with great pride and joy that I launch it for you here today
with the expectation that I might consider it among my best achievements
albeit a modest effort in what we bring you here in terms of quality even
at this point.
We have a 1000k video bitrate offering here (doesnt look like it though -
comes across like a lower bitrate due to the source quality DVD) with
192k audio. These video files are all converted for you to the full 720 X 480
resolution from the NTSC Disc collection of the BBC A&E version.
That said, the quality on our 720p TV is only just barely adequate for viewing
The source content DVD could have been better image quality no doubt and
if we are to do better we will probably have to bring you a torrent at least twice
the size in the near future by converting to an even higher bitrate (there would
be some improvement with this approach - although no doubt it would
still be below quality if we used the same source DVD collection) although
I am hoping that a 720p version would be forthcoming from the Producers
(London Weekend Television) of this singularly most important piece of
British programming for you.You might perhaps wish to download
a single episode (the first episode was produced in black and white
however) to see if you want the whole lot however we do think it will
give the benefit of having seen the program even if the quality is barely
tolerable on a 720p TV
It is better than not having this program copy to have and to share liberally
while we wait for a better version of it - and soon I hope if there is enough
interest out there I believe.
We hope this series will be offered long into the future with the blessings
of all concerned as a reasonable and responsible effort in promoting
British culture around all Europe and elsewhere similarly suited.
