Charlie and Lola - Get The Absolutely Completely Complete DVDs for the BBC's Charlie and Lola

Charlie and Lola has been selling as individual discs so far, with 7 volumes already out and a Volume 8 due to hit stores on August 5th. Now BBC Video and Warner have announced that they will take the individual boxes for those releases, and compile them into a new outer slipcover which will be released October 14th as Charlie and Lola - The Absolutely Completely Complete Seasons 1 and 2. Let's look at the studio description:

Now together for the first time in one 8-disc boxed set, the absolutely completely completest collection of Charlie and Lola ever assembled! Lola is four and she will not ever NEVER eat a tomato! Sometimes she is not sleepy and she will not go to bed, and how will she cope when she is really everso ill and may never smile again? It falls to big brother Charlie to win her around, and he uses every trick in the book - logic, humor, but mostly, the power of the imagination.

Using 2D cel animation, paper cutout, fabric design, photomontage and archive footage, all the distinctive style and exuberance of Lauren Child's award-winning picture books come to life in this enchanting children's series. Glorious music and sound effects help to conjure up fantastical worlds that only children could invent, while realistic dialogue, voiced by children, ensures these magical adventures really resonate with kids.

Cost is $79.98 SRP for 8 discs running 649 minutes. All the content from the separate releases is included, such as extras like Interactive Games, Interviews, a Music Video and Outtakes. Video is anamorphic widescreen, audio is English stereo and subtitles are in English. Here's a look at the packaging:
