The PAL VHS format is identical in England and Australia and everywhere else that uses PAL, as anyone with imported UK VHS tapes will tell you right away. >In Australia we have a PAL TV system.

If you make her a PAL VHS tape, it *will* work in England, as long as your mum isn't trying to use an Australian VHS machine on a UK television via the RF output :-) - Anthony
