Billy Elliot: The Musical Live (Blu-ray)

For those interested, the Billy Elliot: The Musical Live blu-ray that has been released in the UK is Region Free (the copy I've tested certainly is) and runs at 24fps. This means the disc should play anywhere in the world.

I would expect the UK DVD release to be running at 25fps (PAL) so will only play on equipment that can play PAL material, and may also be locked to Region 2.

I received mine yesterday from Amazon UK, delivered to Canada in less than a week.

So, I may have seen BETM (censored) times, but this DVD is wonderful. Don't let not being in the UK be an impediment. Get it for yourself or send it to someone as a New Year's present.  Smiley

Yes, I've heard the same. If you're not in Europe, get the blueray.

They picked a terrific cast to immortalize in this production.

A fantastic audience too.  Roll Eyes

Half-way through the Blu-Ray, when it pans to the audience,  one of the dark smudges amongst the crowd, is me. Tongue

It was a fantastic production. Smiley
