Box Set out October 2007


I just had an email from the kind mr Benson over at Eureka Video (the ppl who distribute and make the DVD's and he says that an entire box set is going to be released in October 07!

Great news if you ask me!!!

I expected as much. I've been comparing the MM releases to the Brittas Empire one, and this is what happened with BE.

reply

Yeah I had the BE box set late last year and made damn sure I asked when the MM one was due out!

Can't wait!

But somewhat annoying for those of us who've been collecting the individual sets.

I'm not too bothered. I got them for the sake of nostalgia (I was 6 when it came out!)
It was a bygone age, when kids were allowed to be kids and we played in the street till sundown.

Ah the halcyon days! I have all the separate series and I share them with my nieces and nephews. They love it as much as I did.
Box sets are all well and good, but I don't worry about having an extra bit of cardboard!

It's just great to have them at last, after waiting so many years!

What bothers me is that the fullsets onlt cone out after all the individual sets are out and they usually are better value and contain stuff you can't get on the individual sets. Like what happened with the One Foot In The Grave sets. Enough people complained about that and the BBC relented and released the two extra Christmas episodes on their own.

...and there's me, just ordered series 3. *tut* Anyone know if there's going to be any unique content in the box set?

reply

Just in time for my twenty-first birthday, hurrah!

Of course they've brought forth juniper berries, they're juniper bushes!

reply

Eureka! are apparently not releasing one now, we should all get on the phone to them or email them to say that those who are waiting for a complete box set really want one and they should release it!

reply

Oh no! I was waiting for the box set! They always work out much better value (which might explain why they don't want to create a box set - they get more money by selling them individually).

Definately a favourite show of mine!
I particularly liked the one with the giant jelly baby..not too sure why that episode made such a mark on me tho hehe
