The local PBS station (WNED - Buffalo, N.Y.) happily repeated it last fall. If you put enough pressure on your local PBS outlet perhaps they will show it again. It doesn't appear as if the rights have been locked by some pay-tv/cable operator. Speaking of repeats... the Buffalo PBS station is showing Alastair Cooke's America, which originally appeared in 1971. I fondly remember it from then and I'm glad to say that memory hasn't failed me. It often takes a foreigner to appreciate a country.
