Actually posted a while back but there is some confusion now over the audio on the disc - some websites are claiming that it will be DD 2.0 only and not DD 5.1 whilst others dispute this.

Apparently a 2nd PR release came out stating the DD 2.0 soundtrack but I believe there must be a mistake somewhere!

I'm not sure if this is relevent, but the R4 special edition that was released last summer was in DD2.0 so it may be that the R1 is the same. Also, as I recall it was shown in the cinemas in 2.0 channels. Still, a 5.1 track would be nice. :)
