Knightmare DVD Petition
-
... And the final figure for the final day is?... Well at the moment it's 1074! Also 2000 units? That's one for yourself, one for each family member, one for each of your mates, one for their mates, etc. think about what prezzy you could buy for each and everyone . Okay I maybe just exagerating a tad bit but anyway

Hi ppl
A thought occurs about this DVD thing. When the petion is sent in (which will no doubt show GMHQ how profitable a DVD release will b) it might also be a good idea to add any idea's we can come up with for distribution (which i think was one of Grenada's main concerns about the DVD release)
Maybe we could all post an idea or two here,selecting the best ones to be sent in.
I would say an online order form could work well(especially if a link to it were put on the site). i'm pretty sure we would all have access to a credit or solo card and the cost to the company would be minimal since postal delivery could be added onto the price (governed by the location of the recipent)

Hi!
Well, since beveryafraid has said that GM are very interested in doing a DVD release, I would guess that this means that they know that there would not be any problems with distribution (the only thing in question is demand). I'm sure the majority of it would be via ordering. If they intend to distribute it across the UK when 2000 units is the target, it'd be spread rather thinly!

Illusion or Pickle^_^: Please can either of you tell me what is going to happen next re the Knightmare on DVD petition. Also, could you please give a final figure? (after removal of 'silly' signatures)

It will be sent to Granada Enterprises (who should be responsible for a DVD/Video release). I don't know what the final petition figure is, but Pickle^_^ will know.

Cool, we shud know about the success of the petition soon then.
On a pessimistic note(not that i have too many of these ) should Gm decide not to go ahead with it(however unlikely) we could get an estimate of how much it wud cost to make the DVD privately and spread the cost among any1 from the forum who wud be up 4 it.
I assume it wud be a case of the more ppl to be involved the greater the saving for each individual involved,bulk buying etc(eg: 1 DVD set wud b £100, 2 wud be £150 or £75 each etc...)
Any1 agree to this as a viable back-up plan(probably not, tis a bit shyte)
-
If Knightmare is to be released on DVD (how could it not?!), how will it be released? In order starting series1, only a select few series, all at once? Does anyone have any idea?
If Granada decide to start cautiously with the release, would it be an idea to advise then on the most popular series, in the case that they do decide to release it?

hi, they final unedited figure is 1077 sigs.
sorry but having only just returned from a northen excuresion i havent had editing time yet. i shall however be getting onto this ASAP.
there are obviously a few matters which will need discussion and since this started life as an advert thread i shall put them in the "bring back knightmare" forum of the board on the thread there. anyone wishing to have they're say please do.
roxxy - never fear....1000 sigs in only 60 days is pretty much our trump card. however saying it was still recieving 10 sigs per day had not occured to me. good idea. 10000 anticipated sigs though is to ambitious i feel. 1500-2000 maybe not so. it has of course always been the plan to tell them of our limited (ie almost non-existant) advertising of the petition.
-
Yeah it was hardly advertised at all
Which just shows you what blabbermouths us Knightmare lot are! hehe
-
And I thought you were Galgarrach and not Fatilla
-
May I suggest you change your signature then Pixx?
hehe or leave the link there and put
you clicked it, you signed it, now Granada have to do the rest....

I think that the DVD campaign is great- but what about VHS? I haven't got a DVD player- I've only got a VCR, and am not going to get a DVD player. Does anyone know if Knightmare is considered being released on VHS?

Although it would probably be a good idea - VHS release is extremely unlikely. VHS tapes are being phased out more and more, and the cost of DVDs is only a fraction of what a standard videotape costs, therefore there is a much higher possibility of getting a DVD release, than on VHS.

That's true Smirky, plus we could get extras on the DVD! Like Stilleta and Romanha/Marta backstage changing?! Apologies!!! Seriously though, American version? The pilot? Besides, if you can, if you save £10 a month for 5months, get a DVD player in WHSmiths! (Don't work there! Work at Yates'!)
Anyway, is there any news yet? Has it been posted? Don't keep us in suspense!!
-
Could you not have the extras on another cassette? Just an idea. And, VHS would be available to everyone, whereas DVD wouldn't. In terms of price, VHS is cheaper to buy than DVD.
Yates... is that a shop? A few years ago there was a Yates Wine Lodge nearby...

True, but in terms of production cost, dvd's are cheaper than vhs.. With dvd's you can get all the extras on the same disk, rather than having to buy another tape - making it cheaper to buy 1 DVD with extras for, say £13, rather than 2 VHS's for £16.

Aren't all T.V series released on VHS aswell though? I've got a number of video sets of recent T.V series on video tape. I reckon you'd only need about 10 5 hour tapes for the all the series. Quite a lot- but not too many.
