Apologies if this has already been covered, but... are there any differences (apart from being polished up/digitally remastered) between the two sets of releases? I'm thinking in terms of the individual episodes?
For example, are any episodes edited now that weren't, or were edited before but have been restored in the digital version?
Cheers.

Some of Diana Rigg's throaty charm is lost in translation. Hopefully I will get used to it. Also makes me hope for a US Blu-ray soon.
The binding seems slightly fragile. Did this set originally come inside a slipcase?
Best,

i can't see a U.S. blu-ray release of all episodes....maybe series 4, etc...but the whole shooting match ? hard to say....and please do it right.....

It was a mistake ... it's £99.99 now:
