In 2003 Network Video began releasing Goodies DVDs in the UK; each was subsequently licensed for release in Australia.  However, variations between the two versions crept in starting with the second release.  Assorted box sets and Australian-only single DVD releases add to the potential confusion.
 
The previous page (Videos & DVDs: 2000-Present) provides detailed information about each release and attempts to explain the differences between related titles.  To supplement that information, I've created the following quick reference charts.
 
Please note that these charts compare content only.  Ignored are differences in titles, release numbers, and artwork/packaging.  Most of these details, as well as Region Codes, are available on the Videos & DVDs: 2000-Present page.
 
The three charts compare:
