Now this is what we call a “Special Edition”
Alert Janeite Maria B. wrote to tell us about a special 10th anniversary edition of the 1995 PRIDE AND PREJUDICE miniseries (P&P2) that will be released in September 2006. There was an anniversary edition released a while back, but this seems to include some actual new things. From the listing on Amazon:
DVD Features:
- Available Audio Tracks: English (Dolby Digital 2.0 Stereo)
- 10th Anniversary Limited Edition Collector’s Set
- Gold embossed green fabric slipcase
- Newly remastered widescreen print
Bonus Disc Features:
- Jane Austen BIOGRAPHY episode
- An exclusive new retrospective documentary about the making of the classic series
- A 120 page deluxe companion book The Making Of Pride and Prejudice
- Interviews with cast and crew
We know there are some who will be very happy with the remastered DVD.
And we assume that the documentary is the one that was broadcast on British TV last year and that the Making of P&P book is the one that everyone probably has already.
And may we add, as an editorial aside, that it’s about sodding time that this series has received this treatment?
