Format:DVD
I managed to get a review copy of this as I'd missed the Brixton gigs from last November. Is a great live show and set-list, and I'm particularly loving the 5.1 sound as well - is no substitute for being there, but I'll take it as a small compensation...
but what really made this dvd for me were the extras. one part is "the knowledge", which is the band's guide to what places in london were important in the history of the Pistols, and within this is john lydon's open-top bus trip around london - you get a taste of it from the trailer but the full segment itself is excellent. it's refreshing to let them do their own talking given all the hype that normally surrounds the band and I think you have to give a lot of credit to Julien Temple for capturing it all.
all in all I think this is a great DVD that didn't disappoint me in any way - not bad for under a tenner!

Theres only one word for this dvd and it is BRILLANT! Went to see the Sex Pistols Nov 2007, and they are better now than they ever were (improved with age) and this dvd shows that! It is fantastic not only does it show the concert but takes you on a tour of London too, on a open top bus along with Rotten himself. Its really interesting and you are stuck on everything Rotten has to say, taking you back to his younger days, and he is so down to earth!!
It is a brillant dvd for Sex Pistol fans and those who are not!! I was never into Punk, I went to see the Sex Pistols and it has totally changed the way I feel, and now I cannot get enough of them!! I was there and the dvd takes me back, and kept me pinned to it! Well worth it!! Sarah Elliott (Stoke-on-Trent)

This as excellent DVD of the Pistol's 30th Anniversary reunion gigs. Julian Temple's filming of the gig itself and the sound quality from producer Chris Thomas are superb. The band do the business and JR is as biting and snarling as ever, and it's a superb overall document of those 5 cherished shows.
The extras, as most other reviewer's agree, are great to have, and with other opinions captured on the 'NMTBollocks' classic album DVD, what else could they have done? Top-notch disc for my money, and it will be played hard, believe me. Great that so many member's of the audience will be able to see themselves on it, too, especially the great looking chick wearing the green panties, rock on, babe; you most certainly had a great time, didn't you!

Excellent
Excellent and enjoyable. For a band to have only ever officially recorded one album only the Sex Pistols can pull off these "one off" concerts on such a regular basis.

Great video, but can we have it in HD?
Bought this DVD, love it.
But I'd also love it in HD with HD audio
(Sky Arts 1 HD are broadcasting it in HD so it must exist in that res/format).
