The original DVD release of I'm Alan Partridge Series 1 includes Joni
Mitchell singing Big Yellow Taxi. Permission was not sought for it's
inclusion in this format so the disk had to be withdrawn and edited before
re-release. If you look on eBay you will see that higher prices are paid for
the original release versus the release that you get nowadays.
