Nice to see Alan Clarke's (of Scum fame) work getting on to Blu-ray too, I hope we have much more soon.

This is out of left field a bit! Bravo Network, as I thought they were only doing the posh shows like The Avengers or Danger Man. Nice to see some independent-types getting their due on BD as well.

Now if only ITV could sell the rights to Cracker--though if necessary, they can keep that abomination they did in 2006--so that a studio like Network could pick THAT up. Fitz in HD would be a sight indeed.

EDIT: Also, ITV, Inspector Morse is perhaps your most well-regarded series of the past 25 years, and in 2008 you release it "remastered" on DVD...from the 1-inch tape masters?! Tell me you didn't bin 60 hours of quality (and posh) TV films.

Has anyone picked this up yet? I'll definitely be getting it at some point but am very curious about the PQ.

Looks to be a high quality release:

Some well written and detailed reviews there too.

£12.59 http://www.play.com/DVD/Blu-ray/4-/1...-/Product.html

That's the cheapest I've ever seen it and it's time to invest.

Very nice:
