Duke Video do a decent highlights DVD I believe.
If I had all the money I've ever spent on drink, I think on balance, I'd probably spend it on drink.

Have a look at the blu ray version, IIRC it's nearly 4 hours of highlights instead of the DVD's hour.

Not so!

The DVD is also four hours or so. 

The whole film is a vast improvement on previous years' offerings and well worth every penny you pay.

I stand corrected, I didn't think they could get 4 hours on a DVD, but they have.
As stated this years Duke (DVD or Blu ray) review is a HUGE improvement on previous years efforts.

You have to remember that this is digital, and you get more and more on a DVD by more compression or, as we used to call it, lack of quality.  Eg. some Sky channels tend to go "chunky" due to movement and being over compressed
Help, get me out of here.  Its Lorry

I know the problem - I've been chunky due to (a lack of) movement and being over compressed for a number of years..... ;)

Received the DVD this morning chaps.
Yup, it's a 4hr job, with commentary from Radio Le Mans and I guess the coverage Eurosport put out for the full race.
Our crew ain't been there for the last three years because the coverage (above) is so good and we don't have to Q for the Loo. Plus you don't get nicked for speeding on the way home (600 squids, I thank you)!
