In the DVD set that I have, the disc with the face of Tom Quinn indicated as disc 1 is actually disc 2. Imagine my puzzlement when I was waiting to see how the cliffhanger from series 1 would be resolved. Of course, if you look at where the indicating arrow on the rack in the opening menu is pointing, you then know which episode you should be viewing. I am a fan of Spooks and have watched every series to date but like a number of other people, I find the DVD set up annoying. A brief guide to each episode or at least an episode title on the case sleeve would help. I have resorted to inserting written notes in the case !

I have always loved this show from season 1 and the quality of writing is the best among all the BBC TV shows. 24 should take a que from this series and make it's storylines more believable.Rupert-Penry Jones is just an added bonus to this show:-) I just wish each season had 24 episodes....BBC listen!

I thought these episodes were better than most of series 1 and 2, generally more interesting. Exception: The rock star child kidnap episode was truly dreadful.
Rupert Penry-Jones as Adam Carter is ; in my opinion, better than Mat MacFadayen ever was.

DVD : Miss Pettigrew Lives for a Day [2008] (REGION 1) (NTSC)
I've just seen this film at the cinema and I enjoyed it very much. I wouldn't say it was fantastic, but it certainly wasn't useless either - somewhere in the middle. If you have enjoyed films such as 'The Truth About Being Earnest', you'll love this. Full of romance, comedy, and drama. You'll be laughing one minute, and feel like crying the next.

Set in 1940's Britain fastly approaching war, it follows the story of Miss Pettigrew, a middle age governess who once again has unfairly been sacked from her job. Unemployed and penniless she decides there is no other option but to seize the day, and finds herself working as social secretary to an aspiring young actress known as Delysia Lafosse. Well outside her comfort zone Miss Pettigrew is catapulted ... Read More:

I watched the first series of Hustle by accident when it came out on TV a few years ago - and boy was I glad I did! This has got to be one of the best series around at the moment. Funny, glamorous, slick and brilliantly written and acted. I agree with a previous reviewer who said it was like Ocean's 11 - but with cleverer plots in my opinion and more humour. I bought this DVD for my husband but have enjoyed watching it again as much as he did - one episode right after the other! I'll be ordering series 2 very shortly...

DVD : The Crow: Salvation [2000] (REGION 1) (NTSC)
This is nowhere near as good as the original but it is nowhere near as bad as City of Angels.

It is pretty well acted but you get the impression that the concept of The Crow has been used a bit too much (another sequel no matter how well executed, will just be the same old and be rendered unwatchable).

But, as I have said this is an alright film and worth a look in.

DOWNTIME (1997)

Aspect ratio: 1.85:1
DVD soundtrack: Dolby 2.0 stereo
Theatrical soundtrack: Dolby Digital

Set in Newcastle-upon-Tyne, but filmed in Liverpool after authorities in Newcastle objected to the script's exaggerated depiction of the city's poorest residents, Bharat Nalluri's DOWNTIME represents a curious combination of social drama and Hollywood-style sensationalism, like DIE HARD directed by Ken Loach! Paul McGann (TV's 'The Monocled Mutineer') plays a former police psychologist who saves a young single mother (Susan Lynch) from suicide at the desolate apartment building where she lives with her only child. Whilst visiting her the following day, the two become trapped in an unstable elevator after it's sabotaged by a group ... Read More:
