Admiral Icktheus (Super fish)

December 29th, 2011 - 12:46amYou Would be better off buying each dvd series seperatly than the series 1 to 5 series box set. Going by the current amazon prices.
Series 1: £8.49 (Also includes invasion of the bane)
Series 2: £8.49
Series 3: £8.49
Series 4:£12.99
Series 5 (preorder): £9.99
Total price 48.45
Series 1 to 5 box set £51.99
You are 3 quid cheaper buying seperate

December 29th, 2011 - 9:13amHow much is the delivery on this thing?because that adds up too.
SillyTilly
December 29th, 2011 - 9:31amAmazon do free delivery
Nicholas
December 29th, 2011 - 10:40amnot all the time, but I expect this is on free super saver delivery. It is play.com that do free delivery on everything
MasterKasterborous
December 29th, 2011 - 11:04amYes that is true but it is nice to have them all together (hopefully it will include Invasion Of The Bane) and also it will get cheaper over time it’s just because it is a new release.
Tardis Manic
December 29th, 2011 - 12:00pmalthough it is £3 cheaper i think people would rather pay more and get all five series together in one box.
MasterKasterborous
December 28th, 2011 - 11:41pmI hope this features all the bonus features from the previous releases and ‘Invasion Of The Bane’. I will wait until it is out an then read some reviews an then make my decision.
gordon
December 28th, 2011 - 9:09pmWouldnt bother waiting for a blu ray release. Series 1 and 2 werent recorded in hd. They could upscale it but it wont do much
differnce to it. Plus the bbc have said they have no plans at this time to release blu ray of the first 3 series. (4 and 5 have already been released in blu ray)
Nicholas
December 28th, 2011 - 7:54pmI never realised the guy who played clyde is 24
Commander Strax
December 29th, 2011 - 1:52pmis that true?
videogamemad00
December 29th, 2011 - 6:28pmyes it is true
Nicholas
December 28th, 2011 - 7:47pmI will get it, If it comes out on blu ray
RORY DOCTOR RIVER POND
December 28th, 2011 - 7:36pmi’m sorry, but that front cover is really dissapointing and boring. where are all the companions??? it is really dull!
Whovian14
December 28th, 2011 - 8:10pmI think it’s because of Lis, and I think it’s supposed to centre Sarah Jane
dw555
December 29th, 2011 - 12:26amI agree. Don’t know why they put a dark horde warrior at the top cause it was only ever seen in one episode for about 2 minutes. Shame its not very good 🙁
R.I.P Elisabeth Sladen
Admiral Icktheus (Super fish)
December 29th, 2011 - 9:27amThe Dark Horde warrior is also on the series 4 boxset. All the monsters shown have featured on a boxset as well.
Commander Strax
December 29th, 2011 - 1:53pmits in the name
Callumeales
December 28th, 2011 - 7:26pm£51.99 on amazon realy expensize but great
King Ninja
December 28th, 2011 - 6:47pmUh, hope it’s not too expensive! Alredy cash less now Christmas day has passed!
SiManCoZeeAh
December 28th, 2011 - 6:15pmThe ‘Complete’ Collection, would imply that Invasion of the Bane is part of this set. Maybe it counts as a Special Feature because it is a Special.
Gee
December 28th, 2011 - 8:15pmI have all the series that have been released so far and invasion of the bane was also included on the compleate series one DVD so I imagine it will be included there on the boxset too! 🙂 xx
Judooning
December 28th, 2011 - 6:14pmMy guess as to why they have not included ‘Invasion of the Bane’ is because they released this DVD seperatley years ago and it was the only SJA episode that was released seperatley on DVD. So in a way, it’s a tactical way to make us buy that seperate DVD.
sarahjaneadventuresnewspage1
December 28th, 2011 - 6:11pmit has invasion of the bane because there is 12 discs
series one box set – 4 discs
series two box set – 3 discs
series three set – 2 discs
series four set – 2 discs
series five set – 1 disc
= 12 discs. Invasion of the Bane is on it.
videogamemad00
December 28th, 2011 - 6:30pmUnless there is a disc of special features. Unlikely but possible.
David Morgan
December 28th, 2011 - 6:08pmAnything On Blu-Ray?
Alex
December 28th, 2011 - 6:10pmYeah, I think it will be availible on Blu-Ray.
booboo
December 28th, 2011 - 6:13pmcant find any listings for blu ray
Mr Master
December 29th, 2011 - 9:16amSlightly off subject, but how come classic stories are never released on blu-ray
booboo
December 29th, 2011 - 9:22amprobably as there would be very little benefit i would imagine
gordon
December 29th, 2011 - 9:42amGoing by the picture quality of pyramids of mars on the SJA series 4 blu ray there wasntmuch improvement. I think they wont do it as restoration to blu ray quality wont be cost effective. They cost too much compared with how much they sell ie they wont make any money off it.
Alex
December 28th, 2011 - 6:05pmI know I already nearly completed SJA, but I might buy this anyway.
David
December 28th, 2011 - 5:42pmim so sad that she’s not with us anymore
Booboo Jr Jr ( A Link To The Doctor Who )
December 28th, 2011 - 5:28pmIt does say “All 2 Part Episodes” so invasion only counts as a 1 part.
Booboo Jr Jr ( A Link To The Doctor Who )
December 28th, 2011 - 5:28pmInvasion of the bane I mean
Admiral Icktheus (Super fish)
December 28th, 2011 - 5:14pmI currently own series 1-4 of SJA (with series 5 on pre-order) but, even though this doesn’t feature Invasion Of The Bane, it’s still a nice set for those who don’t have them all. Just like the audio collection which I’ve just started listening to. 🙂
BOOBOO JR
December 28th, 2011 - 4:55pmNice, shame it doesn’t feature Invasion of the Bane. I might get it, how much will it be?
booboo
December 28th, 2011 - 5:02pmabout £50
SiManCoZeeAh
December 26th, 2011 - 8:39pmThe description on BBC Shop doesn’t say that Invasion of the Bane is in this set… just when I thought this set was perfect! 🙄
TheAwesomeDoctorDonna
December 25th, 2011 - 2:24amI bought series 1-3 on dvd, didnt bother with series 4 as i heard about the sad passing of the great Sladen, so i knew they would release a boxset, i hope its in the same vein as the series 1-4 Doctor Who set, cuz it would look stunning, maybe have an outline of Mister Smith on the front, a few well known artifacts on the back with a shiny Sarah Jane Smith logo on sides and lid!
timelord22
December 5th, 2011 - 8:51pmdeffo getting this!
The Whofan101
December 3rd, 2011 - 10:38pmI shall buy this set, as I currently own no DVDs of The Sarah Jane Adventures, and think that this would be worth my money
MasterKasterborous
December 3rd, 2011 - 9:44pmWhen it was announced that the series was ending I decide not to buy any of the DVDs in the hope that they would release this an they have which is fantastic.
Judooning
December 3rd, 2011 - 7:49pmDon’t have a single SJA episode on DVD so this is perfect!
Adam
January 1st, 2012 - 1:38pmI only have The Invasion of the Bane DVD
Adam
December 3rd, 2011 - 5:43pmI haven’t got the DVDs released so far apart from Invasion of the Bane
gary
December 3rd, 2011 - 5:47pmWell it would be well worth getting this!!! I love SJA!!
gary
December 3rd, 2011 - 3:30pmI have them all but I just want to buy this because SJA is amazing!! It was better than DW I think, such a shame poor Lis passed away. We love her!!

December 25th, 2011 - 2:26amR.I.P the best Doctor Who companion, best female character in the Whoniverse and quite frankly the nicest actress and person Britain has ever produced!
