Any news on these guys?

My guess is that BBC still owns the rights to this one. But correct me if I'm wrong.

Any news at all?

Thanks.

If you are asking if they are out on DVD, well, they are.
Here's a link for ya.

Young Ones

Bottom

I couldn't find anything on Filthy, Rich & Catflap yet.

Filthy, Rich & Catflap has, I believe, been announced for release in the UK later this year, from (IIRC) the Universal/Playback label (who are doing a really good - and ever growing - selection of BBC comedy releases at the moment). Check out amazon.co.uk to see if a date has been announced yet.

Whether it will come to R1 anytime soon, I don't know.

Hope this helps.

OK, I'm back - Universal-Playback's own website states 8th March as the relase date.

I can't post a link to universal-playback, since I haven't made enough posts here yet (15 is the number you have to make before you are allowed, I think) - but I promise it is there. One thing, though: that site lists the release as "VOL. 1 - The complete Series One". I am right in thinking there was only one series anyway, correct?

I should point out that I got this information from zetaminor.com, so I can't take any credit. It's a good site, btw - give it a visit sometime, you may find other news to make you smile, too.

Thanks for the great feedback!
That is was I was looking for.

And, yes, I think you were right. There was only one series made. Not sure how many episodes though.

Since it is coming out in the UK, lets hope for a R1 release soon as well.

What do you guys think?

Yes, just one series of six episodes.

I wonder if the upcoming R2 DVD will be Cut like the VHS release or not. The BBC could not get rights clearances to "Consider Yourself" from Oliver, which features heavily in one episode. It would be fantastic if Universal ponied up the money as it is one of hte funniest sketches in the entire series.

Any news on the Dangerous Brothers being released in the US on dvd? Anywhere?
