At Last! Jane Eyre 1973 Available for Pre-Ordering
Let the stampede begin, for all of you Britishers- ">pre-order the DVD from the BBC here. The rest of us will now look on broodingly until it comes out in region one. I would like to remind those who will likely be disturbed by the delay that from the start we had assurances that it will be coming out in region one, so never fear. I have emailed BBC America this morning, hoping to hear news of when it will be available here as well as Tenant of Wildfell Hall which is still unavailable in region one.

Ah, you beat me to it! No cover pic though, bah. By the way, can't you get a region-free DVD? Or is it a weird electronic issue?
From the BBC? I hadn't considered it. The site says it is region 2.
Regarding the cover, I hope it won't look like their recent releases. I really dislike the concept. :-\ But really, I cannot complain!
Oh, I am an idiot, I meant a region-free DVD player!
