Template:Realworld Star Trek: The Original Series Season 1 was released on VHS by CIC Video in the UK in two different formats: a two-episode-per-tape release in 1988-1989, and a three-episode-per-tape release in 1996-1997. The original release was deleted on 29 March 1996.

Releases

Release dates for the original releases are not known. Dates in italics are approximations based on release frequency, where no exact date is available. UK products are normally released on a Monday.

Original release

The original CIC Video release was continuous, and did not separate out seasons. Consequently, the final volume containing season 1 episodes also began the season 2 release.
