The sound is bog-standard mono which never gets a chance to shine, but the
dialogue is clear.
Extras :
Just a Photo Gallery with ten measly pictures that you'll never tire
of ignoring after the first viewing.
There are a mere 13 chapters, no subtitles and the menus are static, even
if they do feature a piece of the music made for this TV special.
I'm a big fan of the old-style Minder where Arfur used to turn up at Terry's
flat to be greeted by the sight of big-titted blondes roaming around with
their threp'ny bits flopping about, in the days before Waterman left and
Anthea Turner's brother-in-law, Gary Webster turned up to make
a comparative mockery of the format.
It's a shame there's no extras to speak of and a complete lack of subtitles,
but the budget price is still worth it given that it won't cost much more than
the video tape.
