Monkey! - Thirteen Re-Dubbed Episodes [1979] [DVD]

I bought the complete box set which come with these episodes but they are only in the original langauge, it wasnt the same watch Subbed versions they lost there appeal, so had to buy this to finish off revisiting my childhood

Sorry but I didn't like this at all, the voices are very different and so is pigsy, just not the same at all

Bought as a gift, very happy

Second hand as new, good value.

Watched the series all those years ago.These redubbed episodes are great but the notes with the discs don't give the running order or say where they fitted with the other collection of Monkey episodes sold in another collection - which I also bought off Amazon.My daughter has watched them all, she was very tiny when it was on tv originally,She did not notice any problems with picture or sound at all.

Thirteen lost episodes redubbed, and a great job they did. Monkey and Horse sounds exactly the same, Sandy and Tripitaka sounds about 90% the same, and Pigsy sounds very different (even though it's the same actors voice - I guess 30+ years will do that to a voice). The narration is by another actor and unfortunately his voice isn't as good as the original voice (not as over-the-top)The Monkey Nuts documentary was good, and how I expected it to be; interviews with the voice actors, and footage of the recording studio etcThere is also a clip of BBC Breakfast interviewing the actors who do Monkey and Horse, but this is hidden as an easter egg, and not easily found....at first.

One reviewer below seemed confused as to what order these redubbed episodes originally appeared in the series. Making it hard for her to combine it with the other boxset (that also has the missing 13 episides but only with subtitles and not presented in the corrrect chronological order). So, I've pasted below the list so you can combine the two boxsets and watch all dubbed/redubbed episodes in the correct chronological order...Series 1: 1978-79"Monkey Goes Wild about Heaven""Monkey Turns Nursemaid""The Great Journey Begins""Monkey Swallows the Universe""The Power of Youth""Even Monsters Can Be People""The Beginning of Wisdom""Pigsy Woos a Widow""What Monkey Calls the Dog-Woman""Pigsy's in the Well""The Difference Between Night and Day""Pearls Before Swine""The Minx and the Slug""Catfish, Saint and the Shape-Changer""Monkey Meets the Demon Digger""The Most Monstrous Monster""Truth and the Grey Gloves Devil""Land for the Locusts""Vampire Master""Outrageous Coincidences""Pigsy, King and God""Village of the Undead""Two Little Blessings""The Fires of Jealousy""The Country of Nightmares""The End of the Way"Series 2: 1979-80"Pigsy's Ten Thousand Ladies""The Dogs of Death""You Win Some, You Lose Some" (dubbed 2004)"Pigsy Learns A Lesson" (dubbed 2004)"The Land With Two Suns" (dubbed 2004)"The House of the Evil Spirit" (dubbed 2004)"Am I Dreaming?"
