For years I've waited for this to be released on DVD and now it has been.  I loved it when I saw it here on public TV; I hope it has held up well.  Excellent cast:  Tom Conti, Richard Briers, Penelope Wilton, Penelope Keith.  Trouble is the price is high, something like 44 dollars for the Region 1 release.  Off to check and see if there's a Region 2.  Otherwise now it's a waiting game to see if the price will come down to a more reasonable level.
