Yeah you can still watch it , because this is a different set of character"s ( Band Of Brothers was the European Campaign involving the 101 st Airbourne Division, and this one involves the 1 st Marine Division, so it"s a different set of characters and actors). If you want to watch Band Of Brothers, TCM (Sky Channel 317) this Monday are showing it at 9 pm, 2 episodes a night every night up to and including Friday, or if you can"t watch it , I recommend you just sky + it .
It's also available to buy at some pretty reasonable prices if you shop around. I got my boxset from a 2 for £20 deal on play.com a while back. It's currently available for £14.99 delivered on DVD and £17.49 on Blu-Ray, which is a bargain for such high quality drama.
