The BFI have announced details of a long-awaited collection of the films of Derek Jarman, to be released on Blu-Ray this spring.

The original films will come accompanied by a host of extras, including TG live film A Psychic Rally In Heaven, previously unreleased 'making of' Super 8 footage shot by Jarman, film of Toyah Willcox remembering her role in Jubilee, interviews with Tilda Swinton, Dexter Fletcher and other Jarman collaborators, a film looking at unrealised Jarman works, and much more, including galleries of set design, storyboards and so on.

Jarman Volume Two: 1987-1993 will be released later this year. Read The Quietus' recent retrospective on Jubilee and a changing London here.
