the two extant episodes and the two soundtracks for "the crusade" were again released as part of the "lost in time" dvd (bbcdvd 1353) collection of restored episodes and clips in 2004, with russell's sections as an extra when "play all" is selected on disc one. notably, while most of the episodes in the set were given a new transfer directly from their film prints for restoration, "the lion" was not as the existing print was very heavily damaged and putting the print through the telecine process was seen as an undesirable risk. therefore, the 1999 transfer was used as the basis of restoration work. "the lion" did not undergo the vidfire process, while "the wheel of fortune" and all other episodes in the set did.
