Notes:* The soundtrack was initially mono only, despite the print used (and IMDB) stating Dolby Stereo. There is bleed into the surround channels when it's played through an amp set to ProLogic II or similar. However, it was remastered with the correct LPCM 2.0 Stereo. The back of the sleeve stated mono on the initial release, stereo on the repressed version.
Extras are in SD unless otherwise stated. -

OVERALL: Blu-ray B
Currently the only release we are aware of.
NOTE:
When Network initially released their BD, an error occurred which meant the LPCM soundtrack was incorrectly done as 2.0 mono - the packaging stated 1.0 as does DVD Profiler - and at some point Network have quietly corrected the mistake to 2.0 stereo. -
CUTS:
- Blu-ray B The British Film United Kingdom- Network - No cuts (93:28)
