Jamaica Inn DVD release set for May

The BBCā€™s new adaptation of Jamaica Inn will be released on DVD on 26th May.

The three-part series, which will be shown on BBC One starting Easter Monday, is set in 1821 against the backdrop of windswept Cornish Moors.

With her aunt the shell of her former self and under the spell of her domineering husband Joss, Mary finds herself caught in a dangerous and violent web further complicated when she finds herself drawn to enigmatic Jem Meryln, the brother of her uncle.

Jamaica Inn is also available for download via iTunes for Ā£1.29 in SD and Ā£2.49 in HD. A series pass costs Ā£4.99 in SD and Ā£6.99 in HD.
