Mad Men: Seasons One and Two (Blu-Ray) £17.95

Life (Blu-Ray) £17.95

If there's one thing that justifies the license fee for many people in this country, it's the documentary series' that the BBC produce – more specifically, the ones that David Attenborough gets involved with.

This high definition release of the series has the best picture and sound quality that you'll find anywhere, plus you'll also find 10 minute "making of" diaries for each of the 10 episodes.

Samsung BD-C5300 Blu-Ray Player (with Six Blu-Rays) £99.99

With the price of Blu-Ray discs falling in price quite dramatically recently, now would perhaps be the ideal time to consider a Blu-Ray player – with the good news that they'll even be able to play your standard DVDs (while improving the picture quality somewhat as well).

The Samsung BD-C5300 Blu-Ray Player is an excellent way to enter the market, as it can also play files on a USB stick and has a built in wireless connection – useful for any updates that the machine may need in the future.

James Bond Blu-Ray Collection: Volume One £29.97

Instead of releasing the films in order of when they came out, James Bond makes his debut in high definition in the most random of ways. The first two 007 movies are included, but the other four films in the James Bond Blu-Ray Collection: Volume One boxset are from later on in the franchise.

Dr No, From Russia With Love, Thunderball, Live And Let Die, For Your Eyes Only and Die Another Day have never looked or sounded as good as they do here – it's just that it would have been nice to see Bond on Blu-Ray in chronological order. You'll also be glad to hear that all of the bonus material from the standard DVD Ultimate Editions is included as well.
