The DVD, Blu-ray and Collectors Edition DVD of Hello Quo will go on sale 29th October.
Director Alan G. Parker said: "I’m the last director in the world to look like I was right for this project but then the same could be said of Monty Python and I love what we’ve done. I believe we’ve made a film that’s as good as the group."
