The BBC has confirmed this in the following note to one of our readers:
" ..I understand you would like to know if this programme will be repeated or made available on DVD. I am pleased to inform you that a repeat is currently scheduled for 23 August at 1.10am. Please note, this programme will be broadcast as part of BBC ONE's Sign Zone, which means it will contain sign language for the deaf. It is important to note that our future schedules are only confirmed up to seven days in advance, therefore these plans may change. I would advise that nearer the time you visit the BBC 'What's On' website which carries listings up to seven days in advance. The address is: http://www.bbc.co.uk/whatson/ . At present, there are no current plans to release 'Cruel Sea - The Penlee Disaster' commercially. "
