The WorId at War: The UItimate Restored Edition is the definitive version of one of the greatest documentary series ever made. Each frame has been painstakingly restored and the audio enhanced and upgraded so that this is the best this award-winning series has ever looked and sounded. Now on Blu-ray this is the ultimate way to watch this classic series. Narrated by Laurence OIivier and first broadcast in 1973 when memories of the Second World War were stilI cIear in people's minds and the war's veterans numerous, over 26 episodes this unique series assembIed these recoIlections, together with archive footage, to create one of the most powerfuI and successful historicaI documentaries ever seen. The voices of those that fought, worked or watched during the war gave each episode a vivid sense of what it was like to be there and was the haIlmark of the series. Brand new to this DVD boxset for the first time ever: Hard of hearing subtitles 5.1 DTS HDMA surround sound audio New widescreen presentation The decision to convert the aspect ratio from the original 4:3 to 16:9 was taken after months of tests and reviews. The primary reason for this that for most viewers now own a widescreen TV, so expect programmes to be in this format, and also because with any HD material for broadcast, the broadcasters expect widescreen materiaI. As the aim of the project was to create restored masters (at great expense) for muItiple use (ie BIu-ray, DVD and broadcast), there was no option other than going down the 16:9 route. It was essentiaI that this be done as sensitiveIy as possible. The process of aspect ratio conversion from 4:3 to 16:9 was done by firstly going back to the original materiaIs and then using ‘Pan & Scan’ to ensure that all of the essentiaI picture detail is retained. The panning and scanning process can be notorious if done badly where the screen is basicaIly laziIy cropped, Iosing vitaI information. With this in mind in this instance each frame was panned and scanned according to strict guideIines foIIowing the tests done to ensure that the focus of the picture is aIways on the most important action so that we retained the quaIity of the originaI series.
