Upstairs, Downstairs subtitle update 6

This is the sixth upload of newly-written subtitles for the BBC miniseries known as Upstairs, Downstairs (1971 - 1975). So far eleven episodes of season one are complete, with two more to be done. The reason I have delayed continuing is because I ran into trouble with number eleven. It is the Swedish Tiger episode. Two important problems were evident. First there was lead-in to the video entitled "London Weekend" which made it longer than the earlier episodes. Second the synchronization between the audio and video was intolerable. My subtitles fit the sound but not the picture. I had to teach myself how to change these two elements. So, the subtitles on this listing fit my original videos uploaded in the whole Upstairs, Downstairs - Season 1 - (1971 - 1972) for only one through ten. From here-on I have to create subtitles and revise videos (if necessary). So, number eleven in this file, as-is, fits only the new, revised Swedish Tiger which I am going to up load separately. It will fit the old version if you can adjust it yourself using something like Subtitle Workshop. Also, most of the numerous mistakes I made in composing the enclosed subtitle files numbers one through ten are corrected in this upload. Be sure to use only this listing. It is different from all the previous ones.

jgordon, thanks for the devotion. Doesn't look like I am gonna have much luck with this torrent, being the only leech in the pond, but I found most of these on specialized subtitle sites, so - thanks! Any chance of you ever moving on to further seasons?

Acorn has recently released the US version of "Upstairs Downstairs The Complete Series 40th Anniversary Collection". It's up on amazon, and has not been torrented yet to my knowledge.
That collection is going to be the best quality that can be had, because the original series was recorded on video tape instead of film, which is very unfortunate but there's nothing to be done about it. Quality will be slightly better than what you see here because they went back to the originals from iTV and did a better job of translating it to NTSC than previous collections.
That collection is also remarkable because it is the first and only edition with English subtitles for all 5 seasons. At present none of the subtitle sites have these; you will only be able to find subtitles for Season 1 and part of Season 2.
