Absolute sheer GENIUS series.

I loved every episode without fail and think it should be compulsory watching, along with Schindlers List to all students.

I still need to finish the last 3-4 episodes so really looking forward to this coming back

Have to agree, superb series.

Sure I heard they are now in the process of making one based on in the Pacific.

But what about the Battle of Britain spread out over a dozen one hour episodes with Hollywood production values?

I've had the DVD boxset for a few years now, but have finally got the HD version *cough* 48gb worth *cough*

Will be watching them over the bank holiday weekend

will need to find a way to source the last 4-5 episodes.

Buy it?

Band of Brothers was one of the greatest television series ever produced.

Bumpy bumpy - I'm just watching it again and have spotted Danny Blue from Hustle!

(also known as Elton from Doctor Who)

Really looking forward to Pacific, that's why I'm watching these all again now in glorious High Def.

Looks like you can get the HD Blu Ray for an absolute steal on Amazon:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Band-Brother...7741184&sr=8-1
Just GBP17.99 (US costs more than double that, at $56!!!!)

Got the blu-ray metal box set the other month second hand, haven't got round to watching them yet. Save it for the next few weeks when I won't have internet or sky.

Also pacific starts in a few weeks, although I'm going to have to wait for it to come out on blu-ray as I am not subscribing to sky movies.
