Good review! Also worth noting that the set has the original broadcast versions of the show and not the butchered iplayer versions. Original broadcast versions of the episodes run to about 35 minutes as opposed to the 30 minute iPlayer versions which cut out music performances and some key dialogue scenes. For example the iPlayer version of Bomb completely cuts out the Pollution poem at the beginning. This blu ray is a great opportunity to see the episodes as they were aired
Being able to discern a good upscale from a bad upscale is not snobbery, it's.. well.. discernment. ✌ On buying it for the 'extras', surely this release is rare in its greatest 'extras' being the full, unabridged episodes themselves. That it's taken this long to see them released is pretty outrageous. I'd pay the 20 quid for a vanilla DVD edition box set, as long as it was the unabridged episodes. I'll never sit through that interminable raw footage again, despite the initial novelty value, but I'll sit through the original, uncut episodes over and over again. That said, the rest of the bonus features DO look damn good. Subscribed. Cheers. ✌
