hi-res downloads
the film network download trial concludes

Film Network ran a 12-month trial which allowed users to watch a selection of the very best shorts as hi-resolution downloads in full screen, at a quality similar to a DVD.

The trial was very successful but alas has now reached its end. As a way to celebrate the trial we have pieced together some of the most popular shorts that we offered as downloads over the last 12 months. These films, and many more, are still available for viewing as a broadband stream.

We thank you for taking part in the trial. If you would like to comment on the trial or its closure please write to us at film network

remember the downloads...
