Luke Skywalker undergoes Jedi training from Yoda as preparation for more battles against the Empire, while romance blossoms between Han Solo and Leia. Much darker and more complex than the original film, Star Wars Episode V: the Empire Strikes Back emphasises character revelations - including a surprise about Luke's parentage - without stinting on the action and visual effects, which won a special Oscar. This is the 1997 special edition version of the film, featuring souped-up special effects. When is Star Wars: Episode V - The Empire Strikes Back next on TV?
