Looks like the bonus disc will get a solo release - unless this is something different entirely!?

I bet (and hope) you're right, even though the name of the item (The Avengers - Complete Series + Bonus Disc [DVD]) is a bit confusing.

Amazon UK, Play.com & HMV are all taking pre-orders for the Bonus Disc that was included in the Complete Box Set. Release date is 03/10/2011 & is priced at £11.99
Those who didn't want to buy the Complete set just to get this disc can now buy it seperately. :D

That should put a few minds at ease! A most elegant solution. And a rather fabulous cover!

Is it just me that thinks that cover looks like Steed and Emma have been tied together by an evil Cathy and her accomplice Tara?

I'm happy that the special features disc is being offered seperately, it's a very sensible decision. I still think those loyal purchasers who've had the worry and inconvenience of returning discs should have been offered a freebie however.

Would I be rude to ask what is on it and whether it is actually worth £12 of my hard earned precious money?!

Is this the one that had faults? (Jerky motion problems?) Hopefully it will be fixed for the reissue.
