Raffles: The Complete Series

Ernest William Hornung wrote a few stories about a gentlemen thief in late Victorian London, and these help make up the episodes produced of Raffles (the name coming from the title character, AJ Raffles).

All 14 hour-length installments can be found in the Raffles: The Complete Series boxset, alongside some banal extras. I say banal because they’re all text-based, which seems like a missed opportunity to me.

The Bank Job £7

The Bank Job

The Bank Job is a crime film based on the real-life Baker Street robbery, which took place in London in 1971. The producers allege that the story was prevented from being told because of a gagging order, but it’s difficult to tell how much is historical fact due to the amount of fictional elements used.

The DVD comes with the now-standard special features, including deleted scenes and an audio commentary. This also has a two-part featurette on the premiere, but it’s a little "fluffy".

The Dirty Harry Collection: Ultimate Collector’s Edition £17.99

The Dirty Harry Collection: Ultimate Collector's Edition

"Go ahead, make my day" is often attributed to the first film in the Dirty Harry series, but it actually appears in Sudden Impact. With rumors of one final outing for Harry Callahan, The Dirty Harry Collection: Ultimate Collector’s Edition boxset is well worth checking out in case they ever get round to it.

This seven disc boxset contains the movies Dirty Harry, Magnum Force, The Enforcer, Sudden Impact, and The Dead Pool. There’s also countless hours of bonus material, which ranges from a feature-length documentary to audio commentaries on each film.

The Ultimate Alien And Predator Collection £11.94

The Ultimate Alien And Predator Collection

As a sucker for action films, the Alien and Predator franchises both rank highly in my guilty pleasure list. Although hopes where high that combining the two would make for great cinema, the results have left a lot to be desired thus far.

The Ultimate Alien And Predator Collection contains all four Alien films, the two Predator movies, and Alien Vs Predator.

The Benny Hill Annuals: 1970-79

Benny Hill was a great comedian for many years, but it’s his work during the 70s which stands out the most. The combination of farce, risqué jokes, and beautiful ladies probably helped cement him as one of the best of all time.

The Benny Hill Annuals: 1970-79 boxset contains a total of 33 episodes from this era, across 12 discs.
