Well it actually varies between the german release (which I used as a base for my version) and BBC masters as used on FF's set throughout, sometimes yes the german video is better and sometimes its certainly not.
A confession now the official set is out is that after I did my set - I ended up being involved in fabulous films official release.
if you could see the differences pre and post clean up of the video masters you'd be amazed. Yes there are sometimes issues with shimmer,colour and missing bits (the edited broadcast masters were used - its the only masters the bbc had)
I'm glad its finally out officially though. I 'm really proud of it - :)
