DVD NEWS

The first season of Gene Roddenberry's very successful 1997-2002 science fiction series Earth: Final Conflict will be released on DVD in the UK on April the 3rd.

The six-disc set will feature twenty-two episodes, including series opener Decision. The series starred Kevin Kilner as former Police Officer William Boone, who is recruited to work for an apparently benevolent alien race, the androgynous Taelons, who arrive on Earth early in the 21st century. The series also features Roddenberry's widow, Majel Barrett. The RRP for the set is £34.99.

There are new dates for two of the re-mastered Gordon Murray titles: Camberwick Green will now be released on  May 8th, and Chigley on June 19th. The latest updates can be found here: Chigley, Trumpton and Camberwick Green.

That's all I've got time for today - more soon!
