Line of Duty: Series 6 - Blu-ray

[Simon_LDT]

YES!! Been waiting for blu-rays of this superb show.

[Gacivory]

Yes! Watched this in lock down and loved it!

[Mattmck99]

It about time this great series got a blu-ray release, looking forward to series 6.

[Anthifisher]

The series 6 dvd is showing a release of June 28th on Amazon so pretty safe to assume that's when the blu ray and complete series so far will be released.

hopefully they include better 1080p & dts-hd master audio 5.1 transfers and not stupid Dolby digital 2.0 audio

To reflect U.K. broadcast these need to be 1080 50i to get the right speed. No idea if RLJ do that or slow down to 1080 24p using a streaming and US master.

Series 6 is on the BBC shortly (that's me guessing) so the boxset should appear when, or close to when the last episode airs.

There has to be a ending where "H" is finally revealed or this could go on longer than NCIS for crying out loud.

Series 6 will air in March according to the BBC, Jed Mercurio has said their will be at least a 7th series.

For Broadchurch and The Fall they used 1080/50i, so fingers crossed.

Another reason to swap out the German LoD releases, they're 1080p.

Yeah they’re 1080p. They also have German text whenever there’s on-screen writing, ie at the end of each season finale when they do an epilogue.

[36crazyfists]

So f* good !! Would be a dream to have it on Bluray but i dont see it

[minister_x]

Yes, I have always found RLJ to be synonymous with Acorn (for both UK and US releases). Not a surprise to see the parent company listed - a number of listings have Spirit Entertainment as the distributor, even if it's actually a Dazzler Media release, for instance.

The good news is (assuming this release actually happens, and for a popular series like Line of Duty it may well do) it will highly likely be 1080i/50, not because Acorn UK get their speeds right, but because they always output 1080i/50 in the UK and happily this should be correct in this instance (assuming they put 25fps inside a 1080i/50 container, and don't just dump interlaced frames - although even then I guess it would match original TV viewing...).

I would not expect lossless audio above LPCM 2.0 stereo, but that's fine by me. Don't think the German discs had lossless audio either?

Really hope this isn't a mistake and comes through!

Also, ordered from HMV where it's £10 cheaper at £59.99

EDIT: The HMV listing also has the distributor as "Acorn Media UK".

[minister_x]

HMV has updated their listing with the 17th May release date (same as the standalone S6, which would make a lot of sense) and the artwork McCrutchy posted above. Really hope this materialises - very much looking forward to it, even if the audio is lossy (although I hope it isn't, obviously).

Now £49.99 over at Amazon. Weirdly, this appears to be a second entry on Amazon, not the one listed in the forum database already.

Thanks. £10 less than HMV so order moved.

I was going to order it at £49.99 but I thought it was due out just before my birthday so my wife could buy it for me (she wants to see it too... neither of us have) but now Amazon are swapping things around and put it back up to £59.99 and definitely no specified date so very unlikely to be before my birthday
