Also as some of you might have known network had previouisly planned to do Series 2/3/4 but later decided to cancel the releases as the restoration had not yet been done on series 2/3/4
The good new series 2/3/4 will now be getting a release after all from Old Gold Media and will be remastered the release date details for series 2/3/4 yet to be announced
The restoration for series 2/3/4 was only just completed in 2025 and they also done a new remaster for series 1 in 2025
They done both 4:3 and 16.9 remastered versions
The Blu-ray releases for series 2/3/4 it's yet to be decided if they will include both 4:3/16:9 versions but defenitaly will have the 4:3 version

The new 16/9 masters are for streaming and broadcast only. Physical media will be the proper 4/3 versions only. No 16/9.
You're Looking forward to it?!!... pffft, I think I'm going to wet myself!! Yeeeeharrrrr!!
Great pressing. Can't wait for season 2 in September and then Blake's 7 season 2 the month after... Fun viewing ahead.
