WWE: Born To Controversy - The Roddy Piper Story

Roderick Toombs, better known by his ring name "Rowdy" Roddy Piper", is one of the most recognisable faces in the world of professional wrestling.

WWE: Born To Controversy – The Roddy Piper Story is a three disc set that looks back at his incredible career. The first disc holds a documentary about his life plus a few matches, the second contains yet more bouts to enjoy, and the third disc features some of the best moments from Piper’s Pit.

Rising Damp: The Complete Collection £9.99

Rising Damp: The Complete Collection

Classic comedy is often much funnier than stuff we get now (although shows such as Extras and The Office are exceptions to this rule), and Rising Damp is no different. There is some racism, although in the context of the show it works – and it’s nothing too offensive anyway.

Rising Damp: The Complete Collection contains not only the four TV series’ but the feature-length film as well. That’s a total of nearly 13 hours of comedy!

Swordfish (Blu-Ray) £9.95

Swordfish (Blu-Ray) is one of those cheap DVDs that is very underrated

Swordfish is a crime thriller about a sinister mastermind, played by John Travolta, who is desperately trying to access information locked inside a complicated computer system that contains Government secrets – and, if they can hack it, a $9 billion payday…

This film is perhaps more well known for the sight of Halle Berry’s breasts in all their naked glory than it is for being a decent movie, which is a shame as it’s pretty good. It looks even better in high definition as well – as do the aforementioned Ms Berry’s assets!

Michael Caine: 75th Anniversary Boxset £6.99

Michael Caine: 75th Anniversary Boxset

Michael Caine, God bless you Sir, is one of the best actors this country has ever produced. Whilst everyone tries to pretend films like Jaws: The Revenge didn’t happen (although it did buy him a lovely house apparently), he’s also appeared in some of the most iconic movies of all-time – who can forget The Italian Job, or, more recently, his role in The Dark Knight.

The Michael Caine: 75th Anniversary Boxset contains five films where he takes the lead role. The Ipcress File, The Eagle Has Landed, Educating Rita, The Fourth Protocol and Without A Clue are all excellent, it’s just that you feel there’s even better examples of his work out there.

Seinfeld: Seasons Five And Six £8.93

Seinfeld: Seasons Five And Six

Seinfeld has famously been described by both Jerry Seinfeld and writer Larry David as a comedy show "about nothing". Whilst that’s not entirely accurate, it’s fair to say that this is easily one of the most funny series’ to have been produced within the last 20 years – a semi-reunion on the next season of Curb Your Enthusiasm is well worth looking forward to.

The Seinfeld: Seasons Five And Six boxset contains a total of 46 episodes, which include such favourites as "The Puffy Shirt", "The Bris", and "The Soup". There’s also a fair amount of bonus material, such as audio commentaries and deleted scenes, to delve into.

The Hut are selling this set for £8.93 – click here for more details.

Coach Carter, Shaft And Rules Of Engagement Triple Pack £4.49

Coach Carter, Shaft And Rules Of Engagement Triple Pack

Samuel L. Jackson seems to have at least 100 films coming out every year, so to choose just three to make up a mini-collection is a job that’s almost as impossible as the one facing the next Prime Minister of the United Kingdom!

The Coach Carter, Shaft and Rules Of Engagement triple pack contains three decent films – although they are far from being his best work, each will definitely keep you entertained (especially the uplifting Coach Carter).

Kurt Cobain: All Apologies £2.49

Kurt Cobain: All Apologies contains two cheap DVDs that celebrate the life of a great musician

Kurt Cobain was an American musician who served as lead singer, guitarist, and songwriter for the grunge band Nirvana. After struggling with drug addiction and the media pressures surrounding him and his wife Courtney Love, Cobain ended his own life with a self-inflicted shotgun wound to the head on April the 8th 1994 – although some have come to question whether this is true or not in the years following the tragedy.

Kurt Cobain: All Apologies is a tribute to the man and his music from those that he inspired. It also attempts to understand why he continues to be a role model for disaffected youth, via interviews with members of Nirvana, Cobain’s family, and media pundits.
