BBC Worldwide releases for March part one

Time for a look at what BBC Worldwide have coming our way next month, starting with a DVD release due on 3rd March. First up we have Dominic Cooper in the title role of drama Fleming: The Man Who Would Be Bond which will carry a recommended retail price of £15.31.

London, 1939: Ian Fleming, is an irresponsible playboy living in the shadow of his dead war hero father, his successful author brother and his domineering mother. When the Second World War breaks out, Ian suddenly finds himself with a chance to shine, to prove his worth, with a job in Naval Intelligence.

Packed with lust, romance, humour, jeopardy and explosive action, and set in Britain, France, Germany and Jamaica, this is the fascinating story of the man whose own life and adventures were the inspiration for one of the most iconic spies in modern literature, James Bond.



Out a week later on 10th March is Death in Paradise: Series 3, which stars Sara Martins, Kris Marshall, Ben Miller, Gary Carr and Danny John-Jules. The RRP for this DVD will be £20.42.

The series returns for a third run of murder and mystery on the fictional island of Saint-Marie, but with a shocking twist of events, DI Richard Poole is murdered! DI Poole’s tragic death ushers in the arrival of new detective, DI Humphrey Goodman.

Battling their grief and determined to catch the killer of their friend, Camille, Fidel and Dwayne are joined by DI Humphrey Goodman to help them get to the bottom of Poole’s death. Unfortunately, Humphrey’s naturally bumbling and accident-prone ways mean he doesn’t make a great first impression.
