DVD comes free with this Saturday's Grauniad, can't be bad for 70p or so

Blimey I got excited then!

But I already have the Directors Cut on DVD

Excellent movie. I already own the DVD but must highly recommend this to anyone that doesn't have it.

I have the movie (taped off the telly) on VHS, and while I like its 'Hammer Horror' quaintness, I really don't see the fascination with it.
Some parts are pretty embarassing (Woodward, Pitt and Eckland's accents, to begin with).
Rowan's song and the nice 'booty double' with a hint of blonde minge was very nice.
The rest, I'm still not sure about. I can't/don't see the attraction.
I will still buy The Grauniad for it, Hell! I pay near five quid for a packet of fags everyday

. . .

I still don't see the attraction.

please enlighten me Steven, BTW do you have the BBC Scotland XS programme about it?
I do but its on a somewhat slightly damaged VHS tape, it still plays fine and you can see and hear all that's going on, but it has a bit of a left to right 'video interference thin line' in the middle of the screen.

I've got the nice double disc DVD of TWM... paid £17.99 for it about a year ago.

Bloody £5.99 on Play.com now.

I just think it's a really intelligent film that defies categorisation - 'Horror' movie my arse.

I did watch the XS programme, I think, but didn't record it as far as I can recall.

Anyone possibly picking up an extra copy?

As well as it not being her arse - it's not her voice either

Don't give a stuff about Eckland's stunt-arse; not when it's got Christopher Lee and Callan in it

S'definitely not yer average horror flick though. If anything, I reckon it's related to The League of Gentlemen somewhere along the line.

and I'll probably buy the Grauniad for it anyway, despite buying the film on double DVD already

In the singing group I'm in we have been singing "The Maypole Song" from the film in a Mediaevil Baebes stylee
