Tenth anniversary edition of P&P2 and a virtual fan event

Filed under: Screen — Mags @ 10:11 pm

Jennite of the Jennifer Ehle weblog reports that a tenth anniversary edition of the P&P2 DVD goes on sale on September 5.

It appears as if there aren’t many new features, but at least there’s a pretty new cover with Mr Firth looking broody and Ms Ehle looking Lizzy.

Hee! Doesn’t look like there is anything new (from the Special Edition) except the cover art, however.

There is further very exciting news from Jennite: Ms. Ehle has agreed to answer fan questions in an e-mail interview!!!! Click this link to see how to submit your questions. You only have till August 19th, so make haste, make haste!

    Then what should I do?? *seriously at a loss*

  2. Mags Says:

    Buy it, if you don’t have it already. :-)

    The making of featurette is fantastic.

  3. Jen Says:

    Mags/ Of course I DO have it already. That’s why I don’t know what to do, you know. ;-)

    Seriously, this is my dilemma, too! I love the new cover art, but another copy has me looking obsessive, doesn’t it?

  5. Sean Says:

    Oooh.. even though I already have it on VHS and DVD, I think I may have to buy it. The cover is just lovely.

  6. Tina / Jennite Says:

    Here’s an idea…just print out the cover and stick it on your old box :D

    In the VHS version of P&P, one TV episode rolls seemlessly into the next, and doesn’t force you to endure two helpings of the theme tune each time, as is strangely the case with the original DVD.

    So a question for those of you who have the 10th anniversary edition - do the TV episodes blend into a single feature, or is each puncuated with the opening and closing theme tunes - I would gladly buy the new edition if it gets rid of that anoyance :-)

    Another question I have about the 10th anniversary edition. Is it identical to the special edition DVD? The colors of the special edition were washed-out and something about it just seemed wrong. I have therefore preferred the VHS edition, but would be happy to buy this new DVD if it really is an improvement.

    Can anyone compare the two? TIA.
