I think you were mistaking BFI British Film Institute for Big ****ing Idiot. :pound:

I've moved it for you. :)

https://shop.bfi.org.uk/dvd-blu-ray/...ial-offer.html

There is a Criterion sale at the BFI shop but i had to put Criterion BFI in search engine, it's not that obvious on the website.
I've probably put the link up wrong.

The same offer is across all retailers, so you can do it at HMV and Amazon for example, I think they're all offering the same products :)

Thank fek for that Jus....the BFI site's prices are £21.99! :faint:

When you go to checkout it adds the 25 deal.

For a minute there,I thought Jus was a secret millionaire!

A snippet from BarnDoor on Blurage is that Ben Stoddart of the BFI confirmed that a Short Sharp Shocks 2 was 'very likely'.
