Episode 22 will be shown on Channel 4 on Friday 3 October 2003 night, after midnight, at 01:35am - 02:20am (which strictly speaking is then Saturday 4 October 2003) 22. Village of the Undead In a deserted village, the evil male demon Wun-Lung and three beautiful witches await the arrival of Tripitaka, Monkey, Pigsy and Sandy. If they can make the four travellers believe in them, they'll be brought to life. They plan to capture Tripitaka and his disciples one by one, and convince them of their existence by killing them. Who'll be the first pilgrim to fall into the trap?

Apart from the sale at HMV, I think the cheapest price you can get the DVDs for is £14.99 from either http://www.splashdvd.com/ or http://www.play.com/ The £9.99 price at HMV is the best price I've seen so far.

He was popular especially in variety show but retired years ago because of his disease. Mili Okada was once a model for women's magazines but she seldom showed up after her marriage to Masaaki Sakai. After Sakais began their supporting activities for fight against AIDS, she sometimes appears in TV talk show to speak out for their campaign." - --- In Kamakura, the high school, Kamakura gakuen high school, which is next to temple Kencyooji, is Masaaki Sakai's) school.
