New Crossroads DVD Petition

To:  Network DVD

The Crossroads Appreciation Society has launched a new petition to get DVD company, Network DVD, to release more episodes of Crossroads. So far the company have released four ‘Best Of’ volumes and 20 archive releases which comprise of episodes in order of broadcast. When the release of the archive DVD’s began the company promised to release all the episodes of the Motel based soap left in the archives but has stopped at the 1979 episodes.

The DVDs are consistently been best sellers for Network DVD with each release making it into the company’s top ten sellers. The soap has even outsold release of Emmerdale, Coronation Street and The Bill on DVD – not bad for a soap that isn’t even on air any more. Despite the negative image surrounding the Birmingham soap there has clearly been a demand for episodes of the soap on DVD.

Fans had hoped that the archive release would continue especially as Crossroads celebrates its 45th anniversary this year. However, at the present time it seems the company has no plans to release further DVDs and so CAS has decided to launch another petition in the hope of encouraging Network DVD to continue their releases.

CAS launched the original DVD petition in 2004 spearheaded by member Tony Wilson, in time for the 40th anniversary of the series, and was highly successful and resulted in the original Best Off volumes being released – for which the release was widely published with spots on This Morning amongst other shows.

CAS hopes that with the support of its members behind it Network DVD will release there is a market for further volumes and will celebrate the 45th anniversary of Crossroads in fitting style.

Sincerely,

The Undersigned
