Some shameless promotion

[Ian Menkins]

I am so excited about the long-awaited release of the Diana series that I am going to do something I have never done on this forum before: shameless commercial promotion!!! But the change in policy is now justified.

I feel that this forum has largely fulfilled its original aims and I hope in some small way that the support and enthusiasm of our members is what encouraged the "powers that be" to release the original series. Or maybe the release is entirely coincidental?

Whatever the case, it has been 31 years since Diana first screened on our TV sets and it seems we have all been waiting a very long time to see the series again in its original glory. I was a teenager when I first saw it and am now well and truly middle aged. It will be a real treat to watch the series again.

Copies of the official release can be pre-ordered from :-

Amazon www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00WHTRK7S

Simply Home Entertainment www.simplyhe.com/tv-drama/163495-diana-complete-series-1984.html

Diana will be released on September 7, 2015.

I received my copy today. What a treat. I had the 'copied from VHS' version already, which was very wonderfully done, but the quality of this official BBC version is so much better. They even apologize for any imperfections, considering the age/condition of the original tapes. I have just watched episode 1 and it looks fine to me. A big plus are the subtitles (English only) which are quite handy when the actors speak very fast and use dialect. If you haven't got it yet.......

Joy! Going to order mine shortly.

Believe it or not, I still haven't ordered a copy! I guess I am waiting for the price to go down a bit more. Postage to Australia is horrendous.
