shareReleased as a Region 2 stand alone DVD on Monday, July 13th, 2015. This is not the same transfer that was used on the DVD in The London Collection box set, but has been beautifully restored by the BFI and looks a treat. Extras on the disc are an introduction to the film by film historian Charles Barr and extensive photo gallery containing many very interesting production stills. The film also has the original British Board of Film Censors 'X' certificate on the beginning. This was Great Britain's second X-rated film.
shareIt seems strange that some films that were X-rated originally are now PG like this one.
