Doctor Who: The Complete Third Series £29.98

The new Doctor Who series’ have been pretty darn good - I’ll be honest and say I wasn’t expecting much, but David Tennant (and Christopher Eccleston as well, to be fair) has filled the role excellently.

Doctor Who: The Complete Third Series contains all the episodes from the series that saw the return of The Master. In fact, I’d say this has been the best of the new bunch yet.

Amazon have this set available for £29.98 - for more information, click here. Incidentally, there’s still some more classic Doctor Who for £4.39 each in stock.

Traffic £1.96

Traffic is a film about the failing war against drugs. We encounter a high-ranking judge who learns that his daughter is addicted to cocaine, a housewife who takes over her husband’s drug dealing business and a police officer who struggles to do the right thing in the midst of corruption.

With a multitude of actors, including Michael Douglas and Catherine Zeta-Jones, this has an all-star cast in the truest sense of the term. It’s not a bad film either, which is always a good thing.

National Treasure: The Treasure Hunter’s Collection (Blu-Ray) £17.72

Nicolas Cage has had quite an odd career, with some fantastic films (The Rock, Con Air) under his belt and some absolute howlers as well (Next, The Wicker Man). When National Treasure was announced, I don’t think many were too interested - however, it’s turned into a fairly successful franchise.

National Treasure: The Treasure Hunter’s Collection (on Blu-Ray) contains both movies made so far, in glorious high definition. Each are packed with bonus material as well, which is nice.

As with any Blu-Ray release, please make sure that you can play these kind of discs before making a purchase. If you have a PlayStation 3, you’ll be fine!

Instore at Asda you can buy this set for £17.72.

The Golden Compass: Special Edition £9.95

Despite the best efforts of all involved, The Golden Compass didn’t quite do as well as expected. Kids love it though, and I suppose that counts for something.

The Wizard Of Oz: Collector’s Edition £5.99

Terminator 2: Judgment Day (Blu-Ray) £5.98

If ever there was an action film that deserved the high definition treatment, it was surely Terminator 2: Judgment Day. Quite simply, it’s one of the best of its kind - big explosions, high-speed chases, it has everything!

This is a US disc, but it will work perfectly well on your PAL Blu-Ray player.

One Missed Call 2 £5

One Missed Call was another foreign film designed to terrify audiences into being afraid of their phone. Your mobile rings with a chilling tone and you hear your violent demise on the other end - moments later you die!

One Missed Call 2 continues the story, but doesn’t have quite the same impact that the original had. One Missed Opportunity, I think (terrible joke).

Play.com are selling this DVD for only £5 - click here for more details.
