Missing bonus in Europe

With Season 8 comming-up hopefully soon, we'll have reached the end of oiur favorite tv serie.

Still I realize the the cross-over episode "Emeralds are not a girl's best friend" is missing to my collection.

I do not think that, exception made of the US, any European version had that bonus featured on Season One.

Simon & Simon not being released in DVD, it sure doesn't help getting hold of this missing episode.

Would anybody have this episode in Pal and in English? If so any chance to get a copy of it ?

In advance, mahalo

I don't know if this helps, but actually most region 1 DVDs (the NTCS - North American version) will play on most DVDs and PAL machines. It is just the PAL version that will not play on North American NTCS DVD players. So, if you could get your hands on the region 1 DVD it should play.

FWIW, My Mom lives in Switzerland and I have brought her some DVD's from here, they do play, but there can be some issues, I find they often seem a little 'Jumpy'. Maybe a frame rate disparity??

Thank you Maggiepoole & Tralfaze.
Somehow I must have missed your replies - sorry.
Yeah, I guess that I have no other option at this stage, unless Universal Europe adds the missing bonus onto Season 8.
