Last week we
broke the news that BBCAmerica would soon launch a campaign allowing fans to vote online for their favorite of two possible DVD covers for the upcoming
January 22nd release of
Torchwood - The Complete 1st Season. A brief statement was issued with the details of this package art poll, and here's the text of it for you:
On January 22, 2008, BBC Video unleashes Torchwood: The Complete First Season starring John Barrowman (Doctor Who) as Captain Jack Harkness. The biggest hit and highest rated drama in BBC AMERICA's history, this action-packed, adrenalin-fuelled new sci-fi series, from Russell T Davies (writer of Doctor Who, Queer as Folk), follows the adventures of a team of investigators who use alien technology to solve crime.
And the fans have spoken - 1.6 million people alone watched the first episode. Now the fans can be a part of the show and get creatively involved with the DVD release by voting for their favorite cover artwork.
From October 15 through October 26, fans can go to a special voting page on BBCAmerica.com (www.bbccamerica.com/torchwooddvdvote) and vote for their favorite cover. When the voting closes, the artwork that receives the most votes will be used for this highly-anticipated 7-disc box set, which contains over 6 hours of bonus features. In addition, 20 voters will be chosen at random to receive a copy of the DVD once available at retail.
October 15th is when the voting starts. Wait a sec...that's TODAY! But the URL given in the statement doesn't work? No problem; a reader named "Chris" (thank you!) has helped us to find a working one, that he was able to use to cast his vote. So don't delay; head on over to
the voting page at BBCAmerica and pick which cover you prefer. Here's a look at the two choices you'll find over there:
