No word on a release date but it has been announced that the commentaries for Frontios have recently been recorded so it shouldnt be too long until we have it on DVD

Is it just me or does the Tractator in the pic look as if it's about to eat the Doctor's celery?

I have this on VHS and I absolutely loved it. I am going to state, in public, that I loved Christopher H. Bidmead as a writer. Heavy on exposition and scientific detail - lots of complicated speeches explaining why things are happening and generally written so that geeks will like it. Brilliant. Its not to everyone's taste but I actually really liked it. Hope there is a DVD release on the horizon.

I've only seen this once - my impression was not great but not awful.  I must give it another watch sometime.
