Alias: Complete Series One To Five £44.99

Alias: Complete Series One To Five

J.J. Abrams has gone on to much bigger and better things with Lost and such films as Mission: Impossible III and Cloverfield, but Alias is where he first caught everyone’s attention – excellent writing and very good effects made it unmissable television.

The Alias: Complete Series One To Five boxset contains all 105 episodes ever made, along with countless hours of bonus material. Audio commentaries and featurettes are just scratching the surface of what’s inside.

Cheap DVDs like Bruce Almighty are much funnier than you might expect

Bruce Almighty follows Bruce Nolan, a down-on-his-luck TV reporter who seeks a promotion and a better life overall. After a series of bad incidents, Nolan complain that God can’t do His job properly – cue God himself appearing and granting his powers for a week to see if he can do any better.

Tom And Jerry Classic Collection: Volumes One To Six £15.99

Tom And Jerry Classic Collection: Volumes One To Six

Fans of classic animation will no doubt either already own the Tom And Jerry Classic Collection: Volumes One To Six boxset, or plan to in the future – the price it’s at now makes it practically impossible not to buy, in my opinion anyway.

For your money you get six discs that are full of almost every single Tom And Jerry short made, which run for a total time of just under 18 hours!

Every Which Way But Loose And Any Which Way You Can Double Pack £5

Every Which Way But Loose And Any Which Way You Can Double Pack

Clint Eastwood is definitely more familiar for his roles in spaghetti westerns and the Dirty Harry series, so it was quite shocking to see him appear in a couple of comedy films with an orangutan called Clyde. It’s obviously not done any harm to his career though, as he’s still knocking out some top quality work to this day.

The Every Which Way But Loose and Any Which Way You Can double pack contains these two movies, although there’s sadly no extra features – shame, as it would be nice to hear old Clint’s opinions on working with a monkey!

The Big Dinosaur Box £11.99

The Big Dinosaur Box

Whilst the effects used in the initial run of "Walking With…" documentaries looked good at the time, it has to be said that they look a little tired. This is probably down to the fact that every bleeding programme seems to use CGI now – I’m just waiting for the first computer-generated EastEnders character to appear.

The Big Dinosaur Box contains four interesting shows on the deadliest of animals, who thankfully no longer exist (until Jurassic Park becomes a reality anyway!). These are Walking With Dinosaurs, Walking With Dinosaurs: The Ballad Of Big Al, and the two Chased By Dinosaurs specials – Land Of Giants and The Giant Claw.

Dexter: Season Two £12.49

Dexter: Season Two

Dexter is a dark comedy/drama series that centres on Dexter Morgan, a serial killer governed by an ambiguous moral code, who works for the Miami Metro Police Department as a blood splatter analyst.

All 12 episodes from the second year can be found in the Dexter: Season Two boxset, along with a fair few extra features. This is an Australian release, but will work perfectly well on your PAL DVD player (plus it means you get to see them without any annoying ad breaks, FX and ITV1!).
