Fabulous Films have announced the UK Region 2 DVD release of Tales of the Gold Monkey: The Complete Series on 9th November 2009 priced at £59.99 RRP. Broadcast on the BBC 1 on Monday evenings in 1982 & 1983, the series became a massive hit following the success of the Indiana Jones films. This 22 hour long series has never been released on VHS or DVD anywhere in the world because of music clearance issues. These have now been resolved and Fabulous Films are proud to present the worldwide DVD premiere of this much loved classic adventure show. In a backwater corner of the South Pacific a young American adventurer and his ragtag group of friends become involved in death-defying hi-jinx, transporting people-on-the-run in a well-worn Grumman Goose seaplane. Set in 1938, this series captures the ambience and character of a mysterious romantic era.

Known about this for a while, but great news, and a great series.
I wasn't aware that it was music rights that were holding things up. I don't recall much in the way of source music. A Region 1 release was spoken of a while back (around Crystal Skull time, I think) but my understanding then was that the elements weren't considered up to scratch and that it wasn't deemed worthy of the restoration.
