In "Long Way Down," viewers are invited to share in the excitement as actors turned tourists, Ewan McGregor and Charley Boorman, motorcycle from Scotland to South Africa. Over the course of 15,000 miles and 85 days, the friends boldly tarried in several countries, including Egypt, Kenya, Tanzania, Ethiopia, and Namibia.
EMI America Records releases a 3-DVD special edition collection of the 10-episode series that adds more than two hours of additional footage shot during the series' production and one hour of newly shot extra footage. Also included is "The Missing Face," a documentary of McGregor and Boorman's first trip to Africa. The collection offers fans a behind-the-scenes tour of the expedition that was built on spontaneous opportunities, new memories, and friendship.
EMI America Records presents the Fox Reality Channel series Long Way Down on a 3-disc DVD set that costs $39.98 SRP. The Amazon listing for this release shows a release date of October 14th (two weeks ago). On the other hand, the DVDEmpire listing for the same item shows that it releases on November 4th. The earlier date is the official street date, however....on the other hand, Amazon shows that it's listed as out of stock at the moment. As you can see from the studio description above, it's got quite a nice list of bonus material to accompany the 10 episodes of the show's run. Here's a look at the DVD cover art:
