Get the latest news and updates from Duke with our new blog.
There's always so much going on at Duke we sometimes find it hard to keep everyone up to speed on new releases, new product ranges or even just great clips that our production team (Ben and Lee) discover during editing. At this time of year especially product content, length and release date can be changing each week. With this blog we hope we can keep up a semi-regular stream of news, views and entertainment - so you are on the inside track at Duke.
Our range of official reviews on DVD and Blu-ray continues to grow and remains the best way to enjoy and own all the action from F1, MotoGP, BTCC, TT, Le Mans, WRC, World Enduro and lots more, over and over again.
Latest release info
F1 Review - we are due to receive the final content from FOM this week along with the sleeve artwork, so the DVD should then be ready for glass mastering and replication at Sony by the 8th December with stock for sale in our warehouse by the 19th if all goes to plan. The Blu-ray mastering is a much more involved process that can take 10 days longer, so we are unlikely to have stock in the warehouse before Christmas, but all the stops will be pulled out at all stages to speed it along.
This year’s Official F1 Review should be well worth the wait as it is once more over 4 hours after the short 2018 edition.
Away from the world of motorsport, we’re happy to have some new titles for our railway fans, working with Bill Lucas who was behind our very popular Flying Scotsman film from a couple of years ago.
Duke Travel
As well as the traditional video side of the business we also hope to be able to bring you news from the new "live" venture: Duke Travel. In 2019 over three thousand sports fans used Duke Travel to arrange their visits to the Isle of Man TT, in 2020 we’re hoping to give even more visitors that trip of a lifetime experience. We'll be bringing you news of relevant offers and products from our colleagues in the travel business and we're hoping over this year to be able to announce MotoGP and F1 travel deals.
TT visitors - look out for news next week of tickets for a great place to watch the races with reserved seating, food and licensed bar - (and it’s not a pub!)
We hope you enjoy the blog and find it useful. No doubt there will be a bit of a refining process as we learn the best way to use this medium so if you have any hints, tips or feedback, don’t forget that we’re only ever a phonecall or email away.
