From what I have been reading the latest releases are NTSC. Are you referring to the latest releases and they are still PAL?

I'm really hoping that this isn't the final boxset design.

[Show spoiler]

Then again, with 3 weeks to go before release, I can't see 2|Entertain changing it so late in the process.

Also, when I go to the listing in the blu-ray collection database here, this thread isn't listed as the associating thread. Why is that?

Boring design indeed!

Damn it. They got rid of the red and black slipcases for seasons 1 and 2.

EDIT: Would have been a great oppurtunity to have seasons 1-4 in a digipack type of packaging instead of having slipless amaray cases in a standard, larger, boring looking slipbox.

I'm so tempted to double dip for matching cases... how sad am I ?

What latest releases? as I can only find one release of each series which are all 1080i/50hz and that 1-3 boxset is just the standard releases in a box.

The pre-orders for Miracle day and the season 1-4 set. They are on amazon.co.uk and other sites. Their release date is November 14

I wouldn't be surprised if Miracle Day is 1080p24hz but I fully expect the 1-4 set to include the previous releases of 1-3, wouldn't make much sense to change the material from its correct 1080i50hz.

Did anyone pick it up?

Received my 1-4 Boxset yesterday, got fed up of waiting for ChoicesUK to get stock so just ordered it from BBCShop Sunday along with Doctor Who Series 6.

The picture on the side shows new packaging for Series 1 and 2 but I cant confirm this as it has now gone away till xmas.
