Quad5point1 5th Jul 2015		Blu-ray Dead Men Don't Wear Plaid - Pulp Video (2014)	Only available on Blu-Ray from Italy at the moment but couldn't resist buying it. Classic Steve Martin
Quad5point1 5th Jul 2015		DVD Pierrepoint - Lionsgate (2005)	Amazing performance from Timothy Spall in this movie.
Quad5point1 5th Jul 2015		DVD Box Set Will Hay Collection - Optimum Classic (2005)	Bought this set for the The Ghost Of St Michael's and The Black Sheep Of Whitehall. Just brilliant
Quad5point1 30th Jun 2015		DVD Box Set Fawlty Towers - BBC (2009)	An absolute masterclass in comedy writing. Pure genius
Quad5point1 27th Jun 2015		Blu-ray True Grit - Paramount (2011)	John Wayne at his very best. He won his only Oscar for this movie and it was well deserved. Superb movie with superb cast. Looks fantastic on Blu-Ray as well
Quad5point1 26th Jun 2015		DVD Harold Shipman : Doctor Death - Strawberry Media Limited (2013)	I think this is James Bolams most powerful drama ever.
Quad5point1 26th Jun 2015		DVD A Is For Acid - Strawberry Media Limited (2013)	Brilliantly made drama about the serial killer John Haigh. Martin Clunes is excellent in this as is the rest of the cast.
Quad5point1 26th Jun 2015		DVD Jeremy Paxman : The Victorians ; Their Story In Pictures - BBC (2009)	Another superb documentary from Jeremy Paxman
Quad5point1 26th Jun 2015		DVD Jeremy Paxman : Empire - The Open University / BBC Worldwide Ltd (2012)	Superb series from Jeremy Paxman
Quad5point1 26th Jun 2015		DVD Box Set Rising Damp - Granada Ventures (2005)	One of the few great comedies to come from ITV, absolute classic Leonard Rossiter
Quad5point1 25th Jun 2015		Blu-ray The Fog [1980] - Optimum Releasing (2008)	Adrienne Barbeau :- This Is Radio KAB - Antonio Bay
Quad5point1 24th Jun 2015		DVD Box Set Dad's Army - BBC 2 Entertain (2007)	Yet another classic from Auntie Beeb
Quad5point1 24th Jun 2015		DVD Box Set Boys From The Blackstuff - BBC (2003)	This is an absolute masterpiece and, Although not originally intended to be a critique of the Thatcher Tory Government that's what it became symbolic of. I reckon Alan Bleasdale must've had a crystal ball because everything you see here actually happened one way or another.
Quad5point1 23rd Jun 2015		Blu-ray The Fog [1980] - Optimum Releasing (2008)	Even better now with DTS 5.1
Quad5point1 23rd Jun 2015		Blu-ray Ice Cold In Alex - Optimum Classic (2011)	She sure was a babe in her day
Quad5point1 23rd Jun 2015		Blu-ray Ice Cold In Alex - Optimum Classic (2011)	Absolute classic. Great cast and performances all round
Quad5point1 22nd Jun 2015		Blu-ray The Fog [1980] - Optimum Releasing (2008)	Not a bad wee movie at all plus it has Jamie Lee Curtis
Quad5point1 22nd Jun 2015		Blu-ray Sherlock - BBC 2 Entertain (2010)	Another great Beeb series. Just love this.
Quad5point1 22nd Jun 2015		Blu-ray Magnolia - Entertainment In Video (2010)	A very hard movie to define into one particular genre, amongst others it is darkly comic as well. Still, It's one of my all time favourites plus it has an Aimee Mann track on it (Save Me) which is always good anyway
Quad5point1 22nd Jun 2015		Blu-ray The King's Speech - Momentum Pictures (2011)	This movie just has class oozing out of it. Well made with brilliant actors and captures the period perfectly
Quad5point1 22nd Jun 2015		Blu-ray The Towering Inferno - Warner Bros. (2009)	This is I suppose the daddy of all disaster movies. Stellar cast and still very watchable
Quad5point1 22nd Jun 2015		DVD Nice Work - BBC (2014)	A great drama series from Auntie Beeb originally televised in 1989. Been waiting a long time for this one so the old VHS TV recordings can now get the heave-ho. Just waiting for another BBC classic called Roger Roger. Written by John Sullivan (Fools & Horses) about a taxi company, it's hilarious.
Quad5point1 17th Jun 2015		DVD Darby O'gill And The Little People - Walt Disney (2006)	I remember going to the cinema to this when I was about 8. The Banshee and the Death Coach scenes scared the wits out of me. Great wee movie for it's time, originally released in 1959. I still enjoy it today. Catch a flavour of it [YouTube Video]
Quad5point1 15th Jun 2015		DVD Plan 9 From Outer Space - Legend Films Inc (2005)	I remember seeing this for the first time on Channel 4's "Worst Of Hollywood" season. I just couldn't believe what I was watching. I laughed so hard I thought I was going to have a cardiac arrest. Brilliant piece of unintentional comedy entertainment. A real "Must See" and now in colour as well. The same company has also released this on Blu-Ray
Quad5point1 12th Jun 2015		Blu-ray The Time Machine [1960] - Warner Home Video (2014)	Great movie and brilliant transfer to Blu-Ray
Quad5point1 8th Jun 2015		DVD Tombstone - Entertainment In Video (1999)	Have to agree with you on that one. Westerns are not my favourite genre but this movie is superb. All the actors were well picked for the roles. I thought Val Kilmer as Doc Holliday was amazing. It still makes it's way to my DVD player every now and then.
Quad5point1 3rd Jun 2015		Blu-ray Box Set Jurassic Park - Universal (2013)	The 3D conversion on this is excellent. Great movie, especially at Xmas when it keeps all the children entertained no problem
Quad5point1 3rd Jun 2015		Multi-Format A Day In The Life - BFI (2011)	Surely not !!. I can remember Trolley Buses but no trams. Check this link http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Belfast_Corporation_Tramways
Quad5point1 2nd Jun 2015		DVD Roxanne - Columbia TriStar (2000)	I personally think his best movie was Dead Men Don't Wear Plaid. Now that _was_ funny
Quad5point1 2nd Jun 2015		Blu-ray Firewall - Warner Bros. (2006)	Great movie with two of my fave actors, Harrison Ford & Paul Bettany
