I ordered it today and then saw your post. It sounds like a good series. I'll find out what I think of it when it arrives. Are all of the episodes on the DVDs or are there going to be more DVDs in the future?

Nope, 6 episodes and that's your lot. It joins the ranks of British shows that despite being absolute classics, still have less episodes than Firefly. Amongst this fine group of men are Fawlty Towers (12 episodes), The Young Ones (12 episodes), the Office (14 episodes), the Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy (6 episodes) and Queer as Folk (8 episodes).
Of course, there are American brothers-in-arms such as Police Squad! (6 episodes), Clerks (6 episodes, only 2 aired), and Wonderfalls (13 episodes).
Makes you realise we could be a lot worse off plus we get a big budget movie. Don't know why they didn't do another Ultraviolet series, it went down pretty well. Probably more to do with the cast's availability I'd think.

The first time I heard about this series was actually on another FF.net thread, under the heading "Worst Sci-Fi Ever."
Of course, if I recall correctly, that was only one post, and THIS thread currently has over a dozen, so, maybe I should check it out.... if American TV ever gets a clue.

I absolutely looooved this show!
Saw it on TV when it was screened in Australia. It took a little bit of time to get into the plot, but once there - fabulous.
And as an extra bonus, it starred Jack Davenport!!! Mmmmm! HOTTIE!
