The extensive catalogue of TV travel producer Greg Grainger is to be released on DVD.

Flashback Home Entertainment Pty Ltd is releasing the productions under the title GRAINGER'S WORLD with series one comprising 15 titles, which will be released for sale worldwide..

Flashback Operations Director Barry Hume says the launch in April is to coincide with a large increase in interest in documentaries around the world. "We are thrilled at having secured the Grainger library. Greg has filmed in the most remote and exotic corners of the globe, and has captured compelling images and experiences."

The Grainger catalogue has previously been aired in Australia on Channel Seven's WORLD AROUND US, across Britain and Europe, on the Travel Channel, and across North America on the USA Travel Channel. Grainger's highly acclaimed adventures have captured on film the activities as diverse as sky burials in Tibet to shark riding in Tahiti.

The DVD launch relives 20 years of Greg's expeditions roaming the globe in search of the ultimate adventure and wildlife experiences.. His filming trips have captured the wildest extremes of the Arctic, Antarctic, and Africa, as well as the Andes and the Himalayas. He's been knocked down by a cheetah, wounded by an elephant and bitten by a shark. Greg's adventures include the world's first white water rafting trip through Tibet to a kayaking first around the top waterways of South America. He recently crossed the sub-Antarctic island of South Georgia in an expedition following in the footsteps of the great explorer Sir Ernest Shackleton.

GRAINGER'S WORLD DVDs will be available at major DVD outlets. Barry Hume has produced over 1000 separate unique four colour displays to showcase the Grainger catalogue. These distinctive point of sale displays are instantly recognisable from a TV commercial which will support the launch on April 3 and show the consumer exactly where to purchase the DVDs.
