===Background===
'''Channel 4 Video''' was a home video arm of [[Channel 4|Channel 4]] that released the channel's programmes on home media, and also select third-party programmes as well. Initially, Channel 4 Video self-distributed their releases, but beginning in 1998, [[Video Collection International|VCI]] took over. In June 2005, Channel 4 Video ended their partnership with VCI because of the BBC's ownership in the then new[[2 Entertain]] label.
