V: The Complete Collection £14.83

V: The Complete Collection

V is a science fiction franchise about aliens known as "The Visitors" trying to take over Earth, and the human resistance group attempting to stop them. The series has recently been remade by the team behind The 4400, and has begun airing on the Syfy (formerly Sci-Fi) channel in the UK.

Inside the eight disc V: The Complete Collection boxset you'll find every episode of all three of the original series'. This means that V: The Original Miniseries, V: The Final Battle and V: The Complete TV Series are all present and correct – there's little in the way of bonus material though, except an audio commentary and documentary on the miniseries.

The Mummy Trilogy (Blu-Ray) £12.95

The Mummy Trilogy (Blu-Ray)

Believe it or not, but The Mummy was originally intended to be a Clive Barker film about the head of an art museum who tries to reanimate mummies – thankfully, it instead ended up being an adventure movie which kick-started one of the most popular franchises in recent times.

Inside The Mummy Trilogy (Blu-Ray) boxset you'll find The Mummy, The Mummy Returns and The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor in glorious high definition. Also included are plenty of extra features, such as audio commentaries on each film and a plethora of featurettes.

Sony BDP-S360 Blu-Ray Player £99.99

Sony BDP-S360 Blu-Ray Player

Blu-Ray hasn't quite taken off as much as some would have hoped, but with prices falling by a fairly big amount in recent times it could be a good idea to look at the technology – trust me when I say that the jump from standard DVD to high definition is incredible.

The Sony BDP-S360 Blu-Ray player not only allows you to play Blu-Rays, but will also upscale your DVDs as well. What this basically means is that the picture is improved (although obviously a bit below what you'd get with true HD).

To get the Sony BDP-S360 Blu-Ray player for £99.99 from Play.com, simply click here.

Sherlock Holmes: The Complete Collection £24.99

Sherlock Holmes: The Complete Collection

Jeremy Brett's portrayal of Sherlock Holmes is considered by some to be the definitive screen version of the famous detective, but, as you can imagine, there's also some who dispute this (for the record, I think he probably is the best thus far).

Sherlock Holmes: The Complete Collection contains the full 41 investigations from the nine series' that include The Adventures Of Sherlock Holmes, The Return Of Sherlock Holmes, The Casebook Of Sherlock Holmes, and The Memoirs Of Sherlock Holmes.

HMV have this boxset available for £24.99 – for more information, click here.

Dollhouse: Complete Season One £9.99

Dollhouse: Complete Season One

Joss Whedon is probably still best known as the creator of the Buffy the Vampire Slayer television series, but he's also gone on to do more stuff which has been criminally overlooked both by critics and viewers – first off there was Firefly, and at the moment we have Dollhouse.

Inside the Dollhouse: Complete Season One boxset you'll find all 13 episodes from the first year, including an installment which wasn't aired. Also to be found are audio commentaries on three episodes, the un-aired pilot, five featurettes on the making of the show, and a total of 23 deleted scenes.

The Tomorrow People: The Complete Series £17.85

The Tomorrow People: The Complete Series

Although there was an attempt in the 1990's to attract new audiences to The Tomorrow People, for many the original 1970's version is considered the best – with good reason, as the stories were much more believable and exciting (though the acting wasn't!).

The Tomorrow People: The Complete Series is a huge 16 disc boxset which contains all 68 episodes of the original show, along with audio commentaries and picture galleries. Also included is a bonus disc featuring exclusive interviews with the cast and crew.
