Apart from being a great brit film,what is so special about it ? as the below link says it has no special features and yet it is called a Special Edition.

Amazon.co.uk: The League Of Gentlemen - Special Edition [1960]: Jack Hawkins,Richard Attenborough,Nigel Patrick,Roger Livesey,Bryan Forbes,Kieron Moore,Basil Dearden: DVD

Does anyone have the special edition and can tell me why ?

Carlton once release a DVD of The Red Shoes and some of them had a label on saying that they were a "special edition". When I asked what was special about them, they said "Well, they've got a special label on them."

They were really all the same, but they didn't put the "special edition" labels on all of them.

I have it; it has all the extras listed and a very nice transfer to boot. Superb.
