Will it ever be available on DVD?

I thought this drama was excellent and I wonder can anyone tell me if it will ever be available on DVD? It was filmed on location mainly in Arncliffe in Littondale where I was living at that time. I stood and watched much of the filming. I also new some of the local children that were used as extras. If there is not to be a DVD, is it likely to be aired on television again? If so does anyone know when this is likely to be? Its not the first time that Arncliffe has been used for location shooting by ITV. The early years of Emerdale (when it was called Emerdale Farm) were also filmed there. Its a beautiful spot in the heart of the Yorkshire Dales, where time has virtually stood still-perfect for this type of film.
