Network will release the atmospheric, haunting mini - series of Jamaica Inn on 26th May 2008. This release contains the complete and uncut series first broadcast in 1983, and costs just £12.99.

A lighthouse keeper is taken by surprised and murdered. With the guiding light now purposely doused, there really isn’t much chance for an unsuspecting ship against a group of criminals, hell-bent on plundering the goods off the ship with little or no regards to the safety of the ship’s inhabitants.

It is here that Mary Yellan’s father meets his death, as one of the crew massacred by the wreckers. Her mother’s health deteriorates and eventually she dies from grief not long after the death of Mary’s father. Mary leaves her village to join her only surviving relative, Aunt Patience, in a forlorn inn on Bodmin Moor, the eponymous Jamaica Inn. The inn turns out to be the secret headquarter of the wrecking gangs in which her Uncle Joss, a half-crazed murderer, is heavily involved…

Award – winning director Derek Marlow proves to be a firm hand for this dazzling television adaptation of Daphne du Maurier’s evocative novel. He is well-served by a stellar cast. Jane Seymour (Live and Let Die) turns in an astonishing and devastating performance as Mary Yellan, Trevor Eve (Waking the Dead) is the love interest Jem and the legendary Patrick McGoohan (The Prisoner) is the brutal Uncle Joss.
