Star Trek: The Movies I-X - Special Collector’s Edition Boxset £35.97

I’ve never been much of a Star Trek fan, but I have to admit that I do enjoy watching the films - they seem a bit more accessible than any of the TV series’. That could just be me mind you.

The Star Trek: The Movies I-X - Special Collector’s Edition boxset contains the ten films made so far. The great thing is that they are all Special Editions, which means you get a whopping 20 discs that have hours of bonus material on them.

If you fancy this collection, click here to get it for £35.97 from Amazon.

ER: Seasons One To Eleven £9.99 Each

ER is the longest-running US primetime medical drama series of all time, and is entering its 15th (and final) season over here in January. I think that Casualty has been on longer, so we win this war!

Any new viewers to the show may not have realised that George Clooney starred in the first five years, which were coincidentally probably the best times the series ever had.

Seasons one through eleven are priced at £9.99 each over at HMV - click on the corresponding boxart above to buy the boxset you fancy.

Hellboy: Director’s Cut £3.99

With Hellboy II: The Golden Army now showing at cinemas everywhere, this would be a good chance to see the first one if you haven’t seen it already. Even if you have, chances are you haven’t seen the longer version found here.

The Hellboy: Director’s Cut DVD set contains three discs full of bonus material, but the big feature is an additional ten minutes added to the running time of the film. Now it lasts just over two hours instead of under!

HMV are selling this for only £3.99 - for more information, click here.

Comic Book Triple Pack £6

Comic book films are quite a hit and miss bunch - for every The Dark Knight or Spider-Man, we get Elektra or The Fantastic Four in return. This particular comic book triple pack contains two good ‘uns and a stinker, so it could be worse!

The two decent movies are Hellboy and The Punisher (which I personally think is very underrated), but you also get Ghost Rider which is a big steaming pile of turd. And to think Nicolas Cage used to be considered a decent actor.

Pop in to your nearest Tesco and pick up this boxset for £6.

Early Doors: Series One £4.99

The BBC sometimes does comedy sitcoms quite well (The Royle Family), but also does it quite badly as well (After You’ve Gone, My Hero, etc). Thankfully, Early Doors falls into the first category - which is just as well, because one of the writers of the The Royle Family does it as well.

The setting is The Grapes, a small pub in Manchester where daily life revolves around love, loneliness and blocked urinals. Pub landlord Ken is preoccupied with his daughter Melanie, and has a nervous relationship with barmaid Tanya - probably because his first wife left him for his best friend.

Click here to buy Early Doors: Series One for £4.99 from HMV.

Ice Age Double Pack £3.99

Ice Age is a computer-animated film set 20,000 years ago as the Ice Age approaches. An anti-social woolly mammoth and a sloth become unlikely friends, and stumble across a human child who has been left by its family. A saber-tooth tiger soon joins the two, and the group of misfits struggle against the elements to reunited the baby with the human "herd"…

The sequel, Ice Age 2: The Meltdown, sees the team from the first movie reunite. This time they learn that the warming climate has one major drawback - a huge glacial dam holding off oceans of water is about to break, threatening the entire valley. Our heroes must venture to the other side of the valley in order to survive…

Instore at Morrisons you can pick up the Ice Age Double Pack for only £3.99.

Wacky Races: The Complete Series £11.99

Wacky Races is an animated series about 11 different cars racing against each other across different courses, with each hoping to win the ultimate prize of "World’s Wackiest Racer". This cartoon was unusual compared to others at the time, as there were a total of 24 regular characters and the villains (such as Dick Dastardly and Muttley) were the stars.

Wacky Races: The Complete Series is a three disc set which contains all 34 races (two per episode, so technically 17 episodes) and some bonus material.

Top Cat: The Complete Series £14.99

I was ever so slightly shocked to learn that there were only ever 30 episodes of Top Cat ever made - it seems like there should be a lot more. Still, what you get is some top-notch animation.

Top Cat: The Complete Series is a five disc boxset which contains all these episodes plus some interesting material on the show’s history. There’s selected audio commentaries as well.
