Alas, when the PM settled down to begin watching them the other night, he found there was a problem.

The films only worked in DVD players made in North America and the words "wrong region" came up on his screen. Although he mournfully had to put the popcorn away, he is unlikely to jeopardise the special relationship – or "special partnership", as we are now supposed to call it – by registering a complaint.

either gordon brown doesn't know how to operate a DVD player or he's a liar.

i refuse to believe that the POTUS would be that stupid.

I read about that. Too funny. You know the POTUS's staff did that. And Rad, I doubt Gordon Brown knows how to hack his DVD player to make it play any region.
