HOW IT WORKS
From Monday, in each day's Daily Mail, we will be printing a voucher. Simply cut it out and take it to your local branch of Tesco, WHSmith or Eason where in return, you will be given that day's DVD.
I think to get part 2 of Pride and Prejudice you have to print a voucher and take it to Tesco or WH Smiths
To clarify any confusion over this entry: You do NOT "print a voucher", you cut-out a voucher printed in each day's Mail for the appropriate DVD.

‘The British Classics Collection’
Inside every copy of today's Daily Mail there's a free DVD - Pride and Prejudice Part 1 starring Colin Firth, playing the distinguished Mr Darcy, and part two is FREE with Monday's Daily Mail.
This BAFTA and Emmy-winning series ranks as one of the greatest ever television adaptations of Jane Austen's classic novel. The relationship between Mr. Darcy, a wealthy single man, and Elizabeth Bennet, a spirited young woman, provides the core of this emotional and compelling story.
Then over the next three weeks, you can pick up another fabulous British Classic DVD from your local branch of Tesco, WHSmth or Eason ABSOLUTELY FREE - including timeless greats like, David Copperfield, Vanity Fair and A Room With A View.

I’m not 100% about which versions, but I expect most are correct.
Not all are of BBC source/quality!
I've just discovered that the same BBC versions are also in a CURRENT DVD/Partworks series (expected to run to about 50 discs/books) at £7.99 each disc ...
https://vault2.secured-url.com/gefabbri/classicdrama/backissues/index.asp
That must be very annoying for those who subscribed to that series!
Perhaps The Mail will find this another "unprecedented demand" and extend it beyond the planned 18 discs. My WHS ran out yesterday before 12.00, therefore none left for the lunchbreak customers - ouch!0 -

The DVD with today's (Tuesday) Mail is David Copperfield.0

it is worth trying ebay, you don't have to pay much more than a weekend paper, if you kept it on a permanent search, they'd email you when the dvd came up for sale.0
