    .....................Looks like the News of the World are trying to run a spoiler campaign - not sure of the details but they have a picture of "Purple Rain" on the cover and "Prince Album Giveaway" banner - didn't buy it as it didn't feel like there was a CD in the paper (could be a voucher redemption if you can find the right newsagent open on a Sunday) ................

    It's actually a "competition" - they have just 1000 copies of PURPLE RAIN to "give away"

    Did you actually see a cd inside the Mail or can someone confirm there was one?

    I ask because there was a news item last night saying that this was a scam and the cd offer was actually a competition to win one, not to get an actual cd with the paper. ..........

    This is the NEWS OF THE WORLD "fake" offer

    Theirs is not inside - there are only 1000 to "give-away" - think you have to text (and "pay" money for it) to stand a chance of "winning" one !

    Not sure what you mean by "The 4 bonus episodes will also be available" and "which will get you all 26 episodes plus the extra 4 episodes"
    I'm assuming the newspaper version doesn't have the same 'extras' the full retail 11 disc box set version has and is just the episodes?
    According to the product information on Play.com:
    8 special presentations
    Imperial War Museum photo gallery
    Biographies
    Brief history of The World At War, Episode summaries
    Speeches
    Songs and newsreels
    Maps
    Bonus Disc: 30th Anniversary disc containing previously unseen interviews and retrospective interviews with the original production team (3 hours!)
    Au Res.,

    Regards your details - that is not what is in my Daily Mail.

    To get the extra 6 discs you have to send away for them and they ONLY come as part of the FULL 26 disc set for £9.99

    This is simply not true!
    According to the Mail (on Saturday and again today, Monday):

    ..there will be a new DVD every day until Monday, July 30. We will then print details of how you can claim your final six remaining episodes to complete your 26-volume collection.

    Please read carefully before posting such 'facts'.
