Austin Powers: Shagadelic Boxset £8.99

Austin Powers: Shagadelic Boxset

Recent rumors have suggested that a fourth Austin Powers film may be in the works, but I for one would rather they didn’t bother. The first two in the series were excellent – Austin Powers In Goldmember was average at best.

The Austin Powers: Shagadelic Boxset contains Austin Powers: International Man Of Mystery, Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me, and Austin Powers In Goldmember. There’s also hours of special features to wade through, which range from audio commentaries to deleted scenes.

Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles – The Complete First Season From £12.97

Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles - The Complete First Season    Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles - The Complete First Season (Blu-Ray)

With Terminator: Salvation coming out later this year, I expect that ratings for Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles will probably increase (even though the two are completely unrelated). This might just save it from being axed, but with American television channels you never can tell…

Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles – The Complete First Season is a three disc set which contains all nine installments from the first year. The standard DVD release only comes with four deleted scenes, whilst the Blu-Ray version has tons more – including audio commentaries, more deleted scenes, and an extended episode.

The Riches: Season One £11.99

The Riches: Season One

The Riches was a U.S. drama series about a family of con artists who end up stealing the lives of a wealthy couple, after killing them in a car accident. Sadly this is yet another show which promised a lot, but was cancelled after ratings started to nosedive.

Inside The Riches: Season One boxset you’ll find the first 13 episodes, a couple of audio commentaries, two short featurettes, and a gag reel.

Play.com are selling this for £11.99 – click here for more details.

The Jason Statham Collection £12.89

The Jason Statham Collection

Far from being just an average action star, Jason Statham manages to make even some of the worst-sounding ideas become believable – take Crank for example, which is almost like a real-life video game (Statham plays it straight, making for a very underrated film).

The Jason Statham Collection is a four disc set that contains four of his most recent movies. The Bank Job, Chaos, Revolver, and War, are a fairly mixed bag to be honest – Revolver in particular isn’t all that great.

Robin Hood: The Complete First Series (HD-DVD) £17.99

Robin Hood: The Complete First Series, on HD-DVD, comes with a total of four cheap DVDs

The BBC’s version of Robin Hood is a more modern interpretation of the traditional stories of the legendary English folk hero of the same name. Although it started off brilliantly, it’s now become a little tiresome – then again, everything does after a while I suppose.

Robin Hood: The Complete First Series, on HD-DVD, is a unique release in that you can also play the discs in your standard DVD player. It also works out much cheaper doing it this way as well, which is handy.

Hope And Glory: The Complete Collection £7.99

Hope And Glory: The Complete Collection

Whilst Lenny Henry is perhaps better known for his comedy roles in shows like Three Of A Kind, he also does some straight acting from time-to-time. He put in an excellent performance as an ambitious headteacher in Hope And Glory, much to the surprise of those (me included) who generally find him a bit annoying.

Hope And Glory: The Complete Collection is a five disc boxset that contains all 16 episodes from the three series’ that were made.

Play.com have this set of cheap DVDs available for £7.99 – for more information, click here.

Three Of A Kind: Series One To Three £2.99 Each

Three Of A Kind: Series One    Three Of A Kind: Series Two    Three Of A Kind: Series Three

Three Of A Kind was a fast-paced sketch show starring comedians Tracey Ullman, Lenny Henry, and David Copperfield (no, not the magician). Although it was screened at a time when alternative comedy came to the fore, it had a much more traditional style of comedy that gave it a more mainstream appeal.

The Three Of A Kind: Series One To Three DVDs are available for £2.99 each at Play.com, and contain every episode from the respective year.

The General: Special Edition £3.99

The General: Special Edition

Even though Buster Keaton’s silent comedy The General is now regarded by some as one of the best films ever made, at the time of its release in 1927 it was panned by the critics and performed badly at the box office.

The General: Special Edition DVD comes with many hours of interesting bonus material. This includes a few featurettes, an extract from the tinted version of the movie, two short films, an extensive documentary, plus much more.

Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber Of Fleet Street – Special Edition £5.99

Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber Of Fleet Street - Special Edition

Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber Of Fleet Street is an award-winning adaptation of the musical thriller of the same name. It re-tells the Victorian melodramatic tale of a fictitious English barber who, driven insane by the loss of his wife and daughter, murders his customers and turns their remains into meat pies.

The Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber Of Fleet Street – Special Edition DVD comes with a few featurettes, including one on the original musical and another looking at the real history behind the fable.

The Muppet Show: Season One – Special Collector’s Edition £12.98

The Muppet Show: Season One - Special Collector's Edition

It’s interesting to note that The Muppet Show actually started off life in Britain, even though it’s main cast were near-enough all American – proof positive that not everything we produce is absolute rubbish (just a shame we can’t do it now!).

The Muppet Show: Season One – Special Collector’s Edition boxset contains the first 24 episodes, along with some bonus material. This includes the original pilot, some pop-up facts, and a gag reel.

Click here to buy this set for £12.98 from Amazon. Remember that you can also still pick up The Muppet Show: Season Two for £7.89 from Sendit.com.
