to his massive box office hit few could have imagined quite how far his vision would lead him. twenty nine years after the first star wars was released, the entire saga can finally be screened on british tv in its entirety. every saturday we'll be screening an episode from the star wars saga, starting with the original effort, a new hope, and spanning six weeks before the premiere of revenge of the sith." the only question is, when will skyshow the saga in its correct order?
