This BBC production comes to DVD in a standard full-screen picture mode only (1.33:1 aspect ratio) with an English-only Dolby Digital 2.0 Mono soundtrack. Special features include an audio commentary narrated by the film's writers, model tests, a photo gallery of still shots, blueprints of the set, and a "who's who" series information guide. For a movie shot in the '70s, the audio quality is unusually sharp. The picture is also surprisingly sharp on this effectively transferred DVD version, with good color mixing that brings out the scenery, effects, and costumes. The cover artwork isn't much to look at, however.
