Agree about The Holiday. Will be watching it tonight finishing just before midnight.

The Lewis films are pretty hit and miss with me to be honest. 2000 Maniacs is great, whilst Color Me Blood Red is crap. However most of the set i haven't seen so it will be fun (hopefully) to rediscover his films on Blu-ray. Plus at under two quid a film it seemed like a bargain not to be missed.

I’m giving this one another chance, going into it with the knowledge that it’s not ‘great’. Will hopefully like it better. From CEX, original dual format with the booklet, my old copy didn’t have it!

Thanks. I finished The Holiday with the real life Big Ben clock counting down at 42 seconds. Good timing.

Any idea why Battlestar is rated 18, Dave?

I have the same set on dvd (Never watched it though) and it's rated 15.

The rated 18 content is in series 3, it’s packed away so I can’t check but it might be something to do with Razor.

Razor is in the set i have though.

Must be something to do with something else. Edit - Yes they rated the Blu-ray an 18 because of the suicide bombings in season 3. Although the dvd remains 15.

Ahh, I thought it might have been because of the extended unrated cuts in the set.
