I kinda doubt anyone is interested in this but I'll post anyway.

Was 10 episodes (out of 13) into a UK blu-ray set of season one of Guillermo del Toro's The Strain and decided that I wanted to see more. Bought a French seasons 1-3 bd set off a UK ebay seller for 33 pounds (same price as importing the second and third seasons). btw Seller has another copy.

To my surprise, season one looked a damn sight better, so much so that I am also reworking my way back through season one. Detail, contrast and colours are a massive improvement, maybe the biggest improvement I've ever seen comparing blu-rays. Am wondering why the UK season one bd looks so inferior (20th Century Fox for both).

An added bonus, English del Toro commentary track for his 72 minute pilot on the French set (not on UK blu-ray). Seeing it like this, is very easy to appreciate that Guillermo was director on that pilot. btw Despite being French, the sometimes English subtitles appear on screen no problem.
