I seem to remember that there was talk of a French edition but my memory may be playing tricks!

(and apologies if this has been discussed before!)

Well the dutch set was a bargain so I might be tempted to get this as well, if the extras are good. Hopefully this means we'll be seeing some pretty re-issues of the rest of the series as well!

None of the releases I own have English subs :( , I've got: Contender B/W Peels French Cathy series 2, Tara Dutch Cathy series 1 I don't know about the other contender releases, maybe the colour Peels have subs as they were the first to be released?
