Customer Reviews

This is a sampler DVD...
My kids loved this show and they still do. Actually, I like it a lot too. The setting is limited, but the characters are brilliantly portraid. Even though the main storyline is usally very simple, there are a lot of little sideshows that make the whole thing life-like. I'd give 5 stars to the content of the DVD.

It's a real pity that the DVD has only 4 episodes on it. If you watched Bertha with your kids (or without them :-) on TV, then you will not be satisfied with this DVD. Unfortunately, when you look for Bertha 2, Bertha 3 and so on you will not find them.
These 4 episodes is all you can have. So, only 1 star for the amount of content.

An 80s Classic
I loved Bertha as a kid and this DVD brings back all those happy memories. Though the occasional song can be a bit irritating and the pace is a little slow, this is one of my favourite DVDs. My only complaint is that either more episodes should've been added or a second volume should be released....

STOP PRESS......
The producers of this dvd have made a major error...

The best machine competition the dvd is called....Shame the episode isnt actually on the dvd...the 4th episode on the dvd is in fact MORE SPEED, LESS WORK (the episode is about the foreman, complaining about how slow the factory workers are going including bertha, NOTHING TO DO WITH A COMPETITION)

I have the original vhs of bertha, which amazon do still sell...and they have an episode on there which theyve called MORE SPEED, LESS WORK...this is fact is THE BEST MACHINE COMPETITION episode (basiccly, 2 machines in the factory have to make a doll the best, the winner gets to stay as the factorys main machine)....The episodes somewhere along the way have been mixed up..

I know this for a fact btw...if you own the tape and the dvd...watch the episodes then work out what they are called...

So yeh, thats a major error...

So really the dvd your buying contains

The windmills
Mouse in the works
Great painting job
More Speed, Less work

Oh and i wish you could get hold of the other episodes somehow
