Noticed on preorders at Tescos they had this on there for release Feb 2005. I presume this is the BBC series. Anyone confirm and has anyone an idea of what it will feature as a disc. Don`t suppose too many extras as around £15.

and be prepared to quite literally LYAO at how unintentionally hilarious it is.

I did the same with the Tripods. I remember it being this fantastic sci-fi with state-of-the-art SFX, then as I watched it, I also watched my childhood memories disintergrate..

The opening credits are still on the bbc cult website.take a gander at that for a taster

My gf and I watched the BBCs Day of The Triffids recently (it was on UK Gold) and we quite enjoyed it, hadn`t seen it since we were kids.

It had aged a little bit, but was still good imho.

I saw it too a while ago, or the first 2 eps, when I was housesitting for someone. It is still pretty good and I hope this is the BBC version. It used to be on after my bedtime so I didnt really see it the first time it was on.

The BBC are releasing TDOTT & The Nightmare Man (low budget horror set on a fog bound island) based on the Novel\short story Children of the Vojaniou sic, in the new year.
