Both Amazon and Play.com have the 2008 review DVD down for release on November 10th RRP £19.99. It's just listed as a single disc at the moment, but that will hopefully change. Fingers crossed there aren't any production problems with the discs this year...

After last years problems I don't think I'll bother..... By the time I would have got the discs sorted the new season started.

Hopefully no repeat cock up of last year when we got two disc 2s no disc 1.

Yeah... was a problem with the disc producers on the first production run. Duke did replace the disc free of charge though.

Anyway, the DVD is now listed as a 2-disc release running at 453 minutes (that's about 1/2 hour longer than last year's).

Personally whilst more minutes is better, sometimes I'd like it if they did a quick 20-30 minute rundown on the season as well, as a bonus.

To be fair that's the first time anything like that has happened in the 19 years that Duke have been making the Season Review.

Some people were upset that last year's cover may have had 2 cars (although, in the end, it didn't). Be upset again! :D

I don't know why people should be upset about it, if that is the worst thing on the DVD and the coverage is top draw, then I think you should be satisfied, don't judge a DVD by its cover!

I hope they put some bonus features in it....

Good cover. Quite similar to the 07 one. Gio's car followed by his nearest rival(s)

I like the picture with the sparks but the fact is says '7 HOUR OFFICIAL REVIEW' is a bit worrying seeing as they said it would be 7 1/2 hours long....

Has anyone watched it yet? It's pretty much like the ITV1 highlights but there seems to be a good mix of race action and interviews.

Got my copy but not watched it yet. Come to think of it I still have not watched the 2007 review......

I have watched the first disc.. The only non-commentary mistake I noticed is in the driver and teams introduction at the start of the disc...

Apart from that, it has good race coverage plus they have left some interviews.

My only dislike is the gap between meetings.. Must only be a couple of seconds.. It gives the impression that it is all rushed. No time to take a breather between meetings.

I liked it as there was no boring bits and loads of racing just what you want. Well worth £12.99.
