Quad5point1 ● 2nd Jun 2015		Blu-ray Box Set Earth : The Power Of The Planet - BBC (2008)	Good old Auntie Beeb does it again. Excellent series
Quad5point1 ● 2nd Jun 2015		Blu-ray Winter In Wartime - Kaleidoscope (2010)	Excellent movie, well worth a watch
Quad5point1 ● 1st Jun 2015		Blu-ray The Medusa Touch - Network (2014)	I haven't been able to watch this disc the whole way through yet as I just can't separate the French detective in it from Inspector Clouseau. Peter Sellers has a lot to answer for.
Quad5point1 ● 1st Jun 2015		Blu-ray Contact - Warner Bros. (2009)	For me personally this movie was one that promised much and delivered little. I think one viewing will be enough
Quad5point1 ● 1st Jun 2015		DVD Box Set Tales From The Shipyard - BFI (2011)	I'm very into social history, especially when it involves Belfast. I think I've bought most of the BFI DVD's so there will be more to come.
Quad5point1 ● 1st Jun 2015		Blu-ray Birdsong - Universal (2012)	Another great set piece from the BBC.
Quad5point1 ● 1st Jun 2015		DVD Kenny Everett : The Complete Naughty Bits - Fremantle Media (2004)	Just loved this guy. In my opinion this is his best TV work when he was with Thames TV. Forget the BBC stuff, this is a 120 minute goldmine of whacky comedy at it's best. It's about time the "Complete" episodes were released.
Quad5point1 ● 31st May 2015		Blu-ray Brief Encounter - ITV Studios Home Entertainment (2014)	Classic British movie lovingly restored. It's a treat to watch on Blu-Ray
Quad5point1 ● 31st May 2015		Blu-ray Walkabout - Universal (2012)	Just goes without saying really, a bit like Felicity Kendall ;-). The stuff that dreams are made of
Quad5point1 ● 31st May 2015		Blu-ray Walkabout - Universal (2012)	Another favourite Australian movie
Quad5point1 ● 31st May 2015		Blu-ray Sirens - Umbrella Entertainment (2014)	One of my Favourite Australian movies
Quad5point1 ● 31st May 2015		Blu-ray It's A Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World - 20th Century Fox (2012)	One of the funniest movies ever made. Just love it
Quad5point1 ● 31st May 2015		Blu-ray Zodiac : Directors Cut - Warner Home Video (2008)	There are some movies out there that make me feel very uneasy, this is one of them. More suited to the genre of documentary rather than "Entertainment". I've had this a few years now and believe it or not I've still never got to the end of it.
Quad5point1 ● 31st May 2015		Blu-ray Paul Carrack - Live In 3D (2010)	Only 3 songs on it but it is nice to have anyway.
Quad5point1 ● 31st May 2015		Blu-ray Victim - Network (2014)	Superb performances all round in this controversial film made in 1961
Quad5point1 ● 31st May 2015		Blu-ray Falling Down - Warner Bros. (2009)	I love this movie. I can empathise with the main character and his frustrations of modern day life.
Quad5point1 ● 29th May 2015		Blu-ray Titanic [1953] - 20th Century Fox (2012)	Another of his movies I love is Sitting Pretty with Maureen O'Hara & Robert Young. Unfortunately only available as a download from Amazon. It annoys me that I don't have a physical copy on my shelf
Quad5point1 ● 29th May 2015		Blu-ray Titanic [1953] - 20th Century Fox (2012)	And speaking of Clifton Webb ( Who I think was a bit of a genius) he even managed to lift this movie somewhat
Quad5point1 ● 29th May 2015		DVD Box Set Dream On - Universal (2007)	This has to be one of the funniest sitcoms to ever cross the pond. Used to show late night Channel 4 so that should give you an idea of the general content ;-)). Everybody in it was superb. Especially loved his secretary Toby who was like Terrier on steroids. David Bowie even did 2 episodes. Only 2 seasons available at the moment, the sooner they release the rest of them the better
Quad5point1 ● 29th May 2015		DVD The Good Life Complete Collection - Acorn Media (2011)	It's got Felicity Kendal in it. Nuff Said
Quad5point1 ● 28th May 2015		Blu-ray Box Set The Prisoner - Network (2009)	I was 13 when this appeared on the telly. Loved it then and still love it. The other great series from that time was The Avengers, Magic
Quad5point1 ● 28th May 2015		Blu-ray The Bishop's Wife - Warner Home Video (2013)	While It's A Wonderful Life is a great movie (especially the restored colour version) Christmas wouldn't be Christmas without this film. It's simply magic. If you've never seen it then check it out. David Niven and Cary Grant are excellent in this movie. The disc BTW really isn't black that's just the way it scanned. It's a gold colour with red print
Quad5point1 ● 28th May 2015		Blu-ray North By Northwest - Warner Bros. (2009)	Just love this movie. The restoration for Blu-Ray is fab
Quad5point1 ● 28th May 2015		Blu-ray Sneakers - Universal (2013)	This is a great caper. Stellar cast, great story and some good action. Just loved Ben Kingsley in this movie but all the cast are brilliant
Quad5point1 ● 28th May 2015		DVD On The Air : The Complete Series 1 - 3 (2014)	A link to the facebook page which might give you some hint of the genius of Gerry Anderson https://www.facebook.com/OnTheAirTV Gerry died in August 2014 and it feels like my right arm has been cut off. Really really miss his banter in the mornings and wacky music he played, which I have to admit I sent him a proportion of, everything from The Leningrad Cowboys & The Red Army Choir to Wing, a chinese lady now living in New Zealand doing cover songs
Quad5point1 ● 27th May 2015		DVD All This And World War II - Unknown	One of my favourite movies ever, this needs to be released officially
Quad5point1 ● 27th May 2015		DVD Wings : Back To The Egg (Again) - Yellow Dog (2010)	Although a Bootleg this is quite possibly the best copy I have seen of this since it was broadcast on the BBC. Quite possibly my all time favourite McCartney & Wings album. The sooner it gets an official release the better
Quad5point1 ● 27th May 2015		Blu-ray America - Live In Chicago (2011)	Have really enjoyed this band since their eponymous debut in 1971. This disc gives a fairly good representation of their ability and songwriting talents.
Quad5point1 ● 27th May 2015		DVD The Early Bird - ITV DVD (2009)	I have to agree with you on that one. I have the box set and it's probably the one that gets played the most. Just love the hippy trippy sequence after they eat the poisoned apples. Kinda reminds me of the parties we had in the late 60's early 70's ;-))
Quad5point1 ● 27th May 2015		Multi-Format Life Of Pi - 20th Century Fox (2013)	Great movie but wasn't overly impressed by the 3D.
