Pre-order The Big Knights DVD & Blu-Ray

Run For Your Lives!
THE BIG KNIGHTS
Make their DVD debut, 25th October 2010

From the creators of the hugely popular Peppa Pig and Ben & Holly’s Little Kingdom comes The Big Knights, the hysterical animation series, available for the first time on DVD. Join Sir Boris (the finest swordsman in the World) and Sir Morris (not the finest swordsman in the World, but the most enthusiastic) and their trusty, armour-clad pets Horace the dog and Doris the hamster as they bash, belch and bellow their way through 13 rib-tickling episodes!

The Big Knights first crashed onto our screens in 1999 on BBC TV, picking up multiple animation awards along the way. When the series finished it left a legacy of Big Knights fans who have tirelessly petitioned for the series to be released on DVD. On 25th October their wish will finally be granted, courtesy of Entertainment One.

This DVD – which includes a free re-mastered HD special edition on Blu-ray – features all 13 episodes of The Big Knights, seven of which have never previously been available to own.  As well as Brian Blessed and David Rintoul providing the voices of Sir Morris and Sir Boris respectively, listen out for some famous guest stars including Timothy West (King Otto), Prunella Scales (Queen Melissa) and the inimitable Brian Sewell (Sir Kiftsgate).

What the Big Knights lack in bravery and chivalry they make up for with boundless enthusiasm. Among their many adventures, Sir Morris and Sir Boris rescue two mischievous princesses from a tower, take a holiday in the Land of Vampires and go under cover in their wondrous ‘hats of invisbility’.

Hilariously funny and very silly in equal parts, the Big Knights will have family members from 6 – 60 in stitches. It’s an essential addition to your castle’s DVD collection!

RSS is still going to be your best way of staying updated as there will not be emails sent out with every update to the site but we might send out the odd overview of recent happenings once in a while.

Well, take yourself a seat, relax and rest assured that it is coming!

I’m excited to report that right here, TheBigKnights.net will be the FIRST place you can find out the official DVD release date!!

We have been given the honourable task of breaking the news to you all. Unfortunately, not quite yet …. sorry! I’m going to try to avoid saying it will be ‘soon’ but that really is the best word for it!

There will also be an EXCLUSIVE COMPETITION, for which the details and prizes are being worked out.

In other news, there are no plans for an official Big Knights website so we will remain the place to be for The Big Knights online (unofficial official?). With that in mind, we’re going to give the website a complete overhaul and redesign, hopefully bringing you some new Big Knights content while we’re at it.

Before the comments come flooding in (they’re always welcome by the way) there’s no set deadline for the overhaul so let’s just call it ‘over the summer’ for now.

Some people have been asking for a mailinglist or twitter feed, one or the other is on its way. (May I take this opportunity to point out that lovely large shiny RSS link in the top right though… go on subscribe, you might like it! judging by the amount the hits rocket on post days lots of you already do)

Thanks for your support of the site and please tell anyone you know who might be interested about us.

Anyway, sorry for any inconvenience and after a period of biting my nails, I’ll now be backing up the site regularly!!

Well, when I promise updates as soon as we have news I don’t normally expect that news to arrive within one day of the last post! However, it has…

• The remastering has finished!
• The distribution deal has been done and the paperwork signed!
• The extras for the DVD are now being prepared!

We will have a release date for the DVD and Blu-ray very soon so keep checking back, it’s all getting quite exciting now!

Also, we’re working on an exciting … erm … thing for you all! so stay close by.

It’s been over 3 months since our last update which is largely down to there not being much to shout about really!

What has happened while we’ve been away?

• The AstleyBakerDavies studio had 3 months off
• ABD won a BAA award for Ben & Holly’s Little Kingdom
• Peppa Pig failed to show for a UK election Labour party event!

and that pretty much sums it up!

Please share the link to this site, add it to your website, tweet about it, slap it on facebook, etc.
