ITS HOTTER THAN THE SUN!!!

I could literally fill this entire thread with my my favourite Partridge quotes.

Ive thought of a few more series id like on blu-ray.

The Office (uk)
Big Train
Spaced
The League of Gentlemen
Peep Show
Phoenix Nights
Blackadder
Father Ted
The I.T. Crowd
Brass Eye
Bottom
Red Dwarf
The Royal Family
The Young Ones

(im a bit of a fan of uk comedy)

But its very unlikely theyre ever going to bring any of these out on blu-ray So ill just have to make do with the dvds

I'm going to stick my neck out and risk being unpopular for a minute.

Why the hell would you need to see- much less re-purchase- any of those on bluray? Many of them won't look or sound much better, and even if they do, the picture and sound quality won't make them any funnier. It sounds like a colossal waste of money to me. Sorry!

I regularly 'make do' with my DVDs of the Office and Red Dwarf -over & over- and not once would I think "aw, I wish I could more of the individual hairs in Brent's beard"

2) Ive got more money than sense

Agree. I like a lot of that UK comedy list but I dont think theres much chance of them getting to blu anyway and even if they did, I suspect many would look ropey and hardly any better than the DVDs that weve already got of course.

But the vast majority were shot on SD PAL video. I'm not sure, but I think the only one shot on film was Series 1 of Blackadder.
