The follow-up to the action hit "Batman Begins," "The Dark Knight" reunites director Christopher Nolan and star Christian Bale, who reprises the role of Batman/Bruce Wayne in his continuing war on crime.

With the help of Lieutenant Jim Gordon and District Attorney Harvey Dent, Batman sets out to destroy organized crime in Gotham for good. The triumvirate proves to be effective, but they soon find themselves prey to a rising criminal mastermind known as the Joker, who thrusts Gotham into anarchy and forces the Dark Knight ever closer to crossing the fine line between hero and vigilante.

Academy Award nominee Heath Ledger ("Brokeback Mountain") stars as arch-villain The Joker, and Aaron Eckhart plays District Attorney Harvey Dent. Maggie Gyllenhaal joins the cast in the role of Rachel Dawes. Returning from "Batman Begins" are Gary Oldman as Lieutenant Jim Gordon; Oscar winner Michael Caine ("The Cider House Rules") as Alfred; and Oscar winner Morgan Freeman ("Million Dollar Baby") as Lucius Fox.

Amazon.co.uk have it marked for the exact same price (£14.95), but when you go to the checkout they add on V.A.T. or shipping or something and it goes to over €22 :rolleyes:

When you pay in sterling the conversion rate is done by your credit card/bank, always a better rate than the site uses. As we all know play.com use some bizarre high rate and won't let you pay in sterling.

When checking out it said your card will be charged post-dispatch (usually 2 days afterwards).

Region coding on Blu-Ray is up in the air at the moment. Its a definite part of the hardware spec, whereas with DVD I think it was optional for the hardware manufacturer.

At present some studios do it (mainly 20th Century Fox) and some dont. There are also no region free players except for two hardware modded Panasonic players which are twice the price of a region specific model.

Best bet at the moment is to check this site or on movietyme's blog and buy as many region free discs as possible.
