By getting the show shown in the UK it will raise the profile of it even more leading to further hopes of a new series or film. As such everyone should do this, not just us British browncoats.

So mail the BBC and other channels like Channel 4 and maybe they will take note and respond by purchasing the series or BDM for air in the UK.

Done and done.

You might point out that UniHD and SciFi are showing the show on Saturday nights and in a marathon respectively here in the USA. They're like as not running them as lead in's and advertising to boost sales of the Collecctor's Edition ( which might be a great thing to mention, since the BDM won the SFX "Best SciFi Movie" poll and that was mentioned on the BBC! ). Might encourage them to consider running Firefly as a series or a marathon.

We're sending thank you's and have some other stuff planned as the shows are shown and as the date for the release of the Collector's Edition draws near.
Please join us.

HawkWing,

This is the response that I got from Channel 4:

Dear Diane,

Thank you for your enquiry. A member of our Viewer Enquiries team will review your e-mail and will reply to you within the next 3 weeks. If we need to forward your correspondence through to another Channel 4 department for an answer, we cannot guarantee a response time, but will get back to you as soon as we can.

For information about Channel 4 have a look at our FAQ section at www.channel4.com/help

This is what I received from the BBC:

Dear Diane

Thank you for your e-mail regarding 'Firefly'.

I was interested to read your suggestion for the BBC to broadcast the above
mentioned programme.

As I am sure you will understand, the BBC receives tens of thousands of
programme ideas each year, many of which are similar, and we can only use a
small proportion. In order to prevent misunderstandings, then, I should
make it clear that the BBC cannot accept any obligation to pay for a
programme suggestion, or to use one particular suggestion in preference to
another.

However, I would like to assure you that your suggestion has been recorded
for the benefit of all BBC senior management and producers. These will form
part of our daily feedback and contribute to the body of opinion available
when making decisions regarding future programme production

I hope you will continue to find programmes of interest on the BBC and may
I thank you again for taking the time to contact us.

Regards

Cherylanne
