OVERALL: Draw
Between R2 UK and R4 for offering a Dolby Digital 5.1 soundtrack, the full set of extras, and for being proper DVD transfers (R1 has the same specifications but is said to be a PAL/NTSC conversion).
Do note that:
- Disc 6 deleted scenes are not currently listed in the R4 specifications as they were not listed in the review, but it's likely they are present anyway.
- In Australia, the series was previously released in three separate 2-disc boxsets, each containing one third of the episodes. Extras appeared to be the same, except for the missing seventh bonus disc, but soundtrack was in Dolby Digital 2.0 only.
If you are able to confirm the presence of the deleted scenes on R4, or if you own the older edition, please send us a message through our forums. -
CUTS:
- R1 The Complete First Series America- BBC - No cuts (634:30 PAL > NTSC)
- R2 The Complete First Series France- Koba Films - No cuts
- R2 The Complete First Series Holland- Just Entertainment - No cuts
- R2 The Complete First Series United Kingdom- 2 Entertain Video - No cuts (634:30 PAL)
- R4 The Complete First Series Australia- Roadshow Home Entertainment - No cuts (634:30 PAL)
