Thanks to maggieuc in the Jane Eyre board list for reporting the following and unexpected news: the DVD edition of the recent BBC production of Jane Eyre in the US it's scheduled to appear on January, 8 ! (*)At least this is what the PBS Shop announces:
Masterpiece Theatre: Jane Eyre 2PK DVD
Item no: MAST4701

2 DVD Set Description:
The dark romantic mystery of Jane Eyre returns to the screen in this lavish new version for Masterpiece Theatre. A lonely young governess falls in love with the handsome, brooding father of her new student at Thornfield Hall, but neither Jane nor Mr. Rochester can escape the mysteries of their past lives. Toby Stephens, Ruth Wilson, and Francesca Annis bring Charlotte Brontë's timeless classic to vigorous new life.

Release Date: Buy now for shipping by 01/08/2007.

–Length: 240 minutes on 2 Discs
–Number of Programs: 1
–Country Of Origin : United States

Unexpected because it's earlier than the British release and also because the US airing of Jane Eyre in Masterpiece Theater it's scheduled a couple of weeks later. Maybe a typo? We hope not...

We don't know if this edition contains the extras that we reported yesterday.

EDIT
ShopPBS has written to us, confirming the release date and the absence of extras :-(
The released date is as listed on the website. This item does not have any special features. We apologize for any inconvenience this situation may have caused you.

Sincerely,

Timothy C.
Customer Service Representative
(*) The date has been postponed until 20 February 2007
