Now I really REALLY hope that they release the disc separately for those of us who bought all the single releases...
I understand that not all the features might have been ready at the time of the individual releases (and would not necessarily have made sense as a bonus disc to the Tara King DVD's), but it would be plain wrong to punish the customers who supported Optimum from the beginning (and who ended up paying quite a bit more for the individual releases than they would have for the box set - and let's not forget the cost of sending quite a few discs back release after release!).
Please Optimum, go the A & E route and release it separately!

Wouldn't it be a lovely 50th Anniversary present if Optimum sent us the bonus disc with our series 5 & 6 replacement discs - it would more than make up for the cost of posting the faulty discs to them.......

Have the replacement discs started to appear yet? Or have Amazon got new stock yet?

I too would like to know if it's safe to order series 5 + 6 from Amazon...

I've just put some sections of this episode on , and I have to say it sounds about right. On the previous discs Emma's voice was clearly too high pitched, and she now sounds like her old self. I have to confess this is only my opinion and if others may not not agree.

Hope this helps :D

I have received an e-mail from Optimum this morning which may explain some of the comments.

"Please accept our apologies there has been a mix up on the replacement discs for series 5 we sent you earlier this week, we will dispatch another set shortly.

There is no need to send back the discs you received previously.

Many thanks

Optimum Releasing"

Hope this helps

Replacements for the replacements? Oh dear, this is getting complicated.
