stevetherat Posted March 5, 2001 Share Posted March 5, 2001 A Special Edition of The World at War on DVD is available on amazon.co.uk (can't find one on .com). Because it's on the UK site, it's encoded in region 2 so if you are outside Europe you will need a multi-region player. The price would normally be £99.99 (GBPounds) but there is a £20 reduction. This link (.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/B000059RGE/o/qid=983788018/sr=2-1/202-4084607-3671834) will take you there. I've edited out the WWW bit just in case the amazon page tried to load in this thread. Below is a quote from the page: Now digitally remastered The World at War looks even more of an impressive achievement on DVD. Each disc set comes with a detailed menu that places the individual programmes along a chronological timeline. Better yet, chapter access is laid out to allow you to select key speeches or maps or newsreel footage. The World at War was a landmark television event; its DVD incarnation underlines its importance as an historical document. Description: Contains all 5 DVD volumes - 10 Discs. Over 32 hours of digitally re-mastered footage. Packed with extras, including the hour special "The Making of..." I've just realised I should have posted it in General Forum. Please forgive me, I shall not do it again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M. Bates Posted March 5, 2001 Share Posted March 5, 2001 I just bought it. Of course all the non-Region 2 foreigners will be forced to watch it on their inferior NTSC equipment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forever Babra Posted March 5, 2001 Share Posted March 5, 2001 It's a pretty good series with some powerful imagery. I'd recommend it to anyone in any format. For the benefit of Maximus, there's even a short intro on the first episode about a nondescript little village in France. Damn, what was the name again... ------------------ Out of commission, become a pillbox. Out of ammo, become a bunker. Out of time -- become heroes...
