BijouMan · 05-20-2021, 09:01 PM

RLJE Films, in association with AMC Entertainment, will bring to Blu-ray Gareth Evans' Gangs of London: Season One. Currently, the release is set to arrive on the market on July 20.

Very good show. Brutal and bloody. I have 1 episode left to watch.

Malakai · 06-17-2021, 07:07 PM

is there any information yet if the US bluray set is also censored like the UK set?

In what way is the UK set allegedly censored? I watched the whole thing on (UK) blu and noticed no censorship...

What was censored in the UK release? Because all the graphic violence, strong language, drug use, and so forth seemed completely intact here.

My guess is nothing. The only place outside of the above post that I have seen it claimed anything was censored on the UK release is in one review on Amazon, but it's not clear if the reviewer was simply talking nonsense or was reviewing another release [since Amazon conflates them].

I liked it enough that i might end up getting the Blu-ray and seeing it again should be able to get it at Best Buy most likely.

Best Buy was where I got my copy from, so it's possible, though my store only had 3 total copies before I bought mine.

new2blu123 · 07-22-2021, 02:41 AM

Mine had 2 prior to my purchase.

Got a belated site review up for this one. Great series if you're still on the fence!

Gangs of London: Season One Blu-ray Review

minister_x · 08-03-2021, 06:30 PM

Had me worried for a second there when I read about 10 episodes (thinking it was going to be like War & Peace...), but then I realised the first feature-length one was split into two for the US.

Rick Grimes · 12-07-2021, 01:34 AM

I noticed that the US set suffers from PAL slowdown, much like Doctor Who S5 onwards (and a lot of UK shows transferred to US Blu-Rays).
Such is life when the UK still broadcasts at 50i and the US is 60i.

What a wonderful world it would be if all countries adopted a 24fps, progressive (rather than interlaced) format for when we may eventually get to UHD (2160p) broadcasts.

Kleeberg · 02-08-2022, 02:59 AM

For anyone who has the US release - is a digital copy included?

McCrutchy · 07-24-2023, 03:27 AM

There is a release included here for season two releasing on Tuesday, but it seems to be a DVD:

There is a UK BD of season two:

Can confirm it is only dvd. I ordered it from amazon and at the time it said blu-ray, but today it was just delivered and it’s dvd. Checked amazon and they changed it to dvd on the site.

This same thing apparently happened to me. It's not delivered yet but is out for delivery so I guess I'm sending it back.

What a letdown.

HipsterTrash · 07-27-2023, 11:51 AM

Damn. Maybe there's a chance RLJE could release a blu later down the line. But I really wish they would have stayed persistent with keeping it to the better format. So tired of shows starting on blu then being dvd only.

someguy28 · 08-03-2023, 08:35 PM

I had this pre-ordered through Bullmoose and just got a shipping notice. Will report back if I do indeed receive this on blu.

HipsterTrash · 08-03-2023, 09:41 PM

Kind of lame if season 2 is dvd only. Shows like Discovery of Witches, Creepshow, Cursed Films, History of Horror and Slasher all got multiple season releases. I'd say Gangs of London is just as popular as those.

Nope. It arrived today and it's the DVD. RLJ really screwed the pooch on this one.
