flag New Video Interface - 29 Jan 2007

Due to technical issues we have changed our video interface from Windows Media Player to flash, to make it easier for you to view the videos. We have also made the videos larger to make them easier to view.

This means the videos should be a lot smoother and load more quickly. It also allows more people to access the videos (including those people using MAC computers). This change means you will no longer be able to download the videos to your computer, and we are sorry for any convenience this may cause.

We hope you enjoy these improvements and look forward to any comments you have. If you have any problems viewing the new videos please read the FAQ section and if you are still having problems contact us.

We are sorry for this inconvenience, but we hope you will enjoy the new improved functionality and reliability of the new system.
