    Sound is not great
    I applaud the issue of any British film of this era on DVD.. I appreciate that the materials used are subject to the depridations of time.Sadly this is the case with this film.The picture elements are in fact better than the sound elements.My hearing is not too good but even with my hearing aids in was well aware that a considerable part of the soundtrack was inaudible through distortion which of course made the following of the plot impossible for me.Great shame.
