VHS : The Avengers - The M. Appeal Collection - Mission 3 [1961]
This video has one of the most talked about episodes from the M-Appeal collection. 'A touch of Brimstone' shows Mrs Peel in a tight leather leotard, with a spiked dog collor on. Something that the censors at that time had lots of fun with!

Dead Man's Treasure lets the video down slightly, as although, Mrs Peel is, again, the focus of the plot line, they seem to have thrown a colour episode in, just for the sake of it.

The house That Jack Built is my personal favourite, as it has the perfect combination of classic Avengers twists, with Dr Who and Hitchcock tendancies. A true Peel classic.

VHS : Babylon 5 - Vol. 17 - Hunter, Prey / And Now For A Word [1994]
Episode 1: This is a great episode in which earth force try and cover up again. Sheridan finds out whats going on from his conspiricy partners on earth. A brilliant plan is formulated and yet again they get away it. Fantastic.

Episode 2: This is an episode in the disguise of a news report. A reporter from ISN is sent to B5 to report on the state of it, in the middle of the Centauri/Narn conflict. She gets in everyones way in this propaganda piece for Earth Gov. Amusing interviews with crew and ambassadors lead to a great watch. Blinding.

VHS : Babylon 5 - Vol. 19 - In The Shadow Of Z'Ha'Dum / Confessions And Lamentations [1994]
In the first episode, Sheridan finds that Morden (Ed Wasser) was on the ship that his wife died on, and also discovers a shocking secret in the process.

This is another episode that is intensive on the arc and boosts it ahead significantly. The interrogation scenes between Morden and Sheridan are very well written, and Bruce Boxleitner gives an excellent performance as the troubled Captain. Wasser does equally well as the sinister Mr Morden.

Towards the end of the episode, Delenn and Kosh come to Sheridan and explain to him the secret of the Shadows, something that has been building since the midpoint of season one. The revelations are exciting and well played out, and this episode is essential to the coming story arcs. ... Read More:

VHS : Doctor Who - Castrovalva [1982] [1963]
A lot of people think it's cool to disrespect the Fifth these days. I spent the last 20 years (not all of it, obviously) rewatching a few stories about Mr. Davison's Doctor (Earthshock, Five Doctors, Resurrection of the Daleks and caves of Androzani) and so I'm left with the impression he was damn fine. I recently started to collect the rest of his era and while he had his ebbs and flows (like all the Doctors) he just never ceases to impress with that cool, charming, dashing Cricketer who has a vulnerable side and yet a hard edge as well. When I got round to Castrovalva, his debt story, I found it one of the most entertaining and well crafted stories of the lot, a real gem, and endlessly rewatchable. I especially love the way the Doctor goes all ... Read More:

VHS : Fantastic Voyage [1966]

This is a movie that has played tricks in my memory over the years. I first saw this when I was a child, and for some reason recall a much more exciting journey with lots more happenings, including a much longer passing through a beating heart - which doesn't actually happen at all, and so I guess the memory really does play some giant tricks with the passage of time!

I guess many young people may be very critical of this film, since nowadays there are so many much more advanced and sophisticated special effects. However, for its day, this was quite brilliant!

A group of Experts climb into a submarine and are 'miniaturised' and sent on a mission inside a human body to repair some damage to the patient's brain ... Read More:
