| "Don't miss out on this brilliant four-disc 'Military Vehicles' collection! This documentary set includes: Great Battleships of WW2, Story of Tanks, Story of the Spitfire and Jet Fighters Post WW2. Learn more about the groundbreaking technology and vehicles that contributed to military development! Great Battleships Of WWII - The war at sea between 1914 and 1918 was mainly between two great fleets, Britain's Royal Navy and Germany s Imperial Navy. The Sea War encompassed all the World's oceans. It also saw the development of new naval weapons and battle tactics. The German and British navy's each had 2 roles. One was to destroy the others battle fleet and the second was to destroy the enemy's merchant shipping. Both sides went to war in 1914 with both these roles given priority. In modern times, the Navy tend to concentrate their fleets around the giant aircraft carriers. In 1914 however and later in 1939, it was the battleships that were the fleets flagships. These were the largest types of warships afloat with the biggest guns. Story of Tanks - In this DVD, we look at the development of tanks throughout history including the German tank division, Russian tanks U.S. tank development. We also look at tanks in the Cold War. While they would not only continue to be produced in huge numbers the technology advanced dramatically making them larger with thicker armour and generally much more effective. This is a fascinating DVD not to be missed by those with an interest in military history and weapon development. Story of the Spitfires - Is there any other plane in the world that is so loved by its pilots? World War II veterans say it is a pleasure to fly, there was a magic about this magnificent plane. While Spitfires couldn t fly at night and there was a lack of communication what the Spitfire couldn t do was dramatically outweighed by what it could! Ever wanted to know more about the amazing feat of engineering that potentially changed the course of World War II? Then this is the DVD for you! Jet Fighters Post WWII - By the end of the Second World War, the age of propeller-driven fighter aircraft was over. This DVD chronicles the development of jet technology and its impact on the Royal Air Force with three of the force s most potent Fighters. From the pioneering test flights of the Hawker Hunter of the 1950 s, to the development of the world s first VTOL (Vertical Take Off and landing), aircraft the Hawker Harrier, including it s dramatic role in the Falklands War. In the ground attack role, the RAF deployed the Sepecat Jaguar, one of the most sophisticated aircraft of its time. The pilots talk about what it is like to fly these computerised, mach-speed planes, and dramatic footage from training and combat shows them in action."

Review For Battle and Glory. This wonderful sequel to 1998s Mindgame proves to be far better than the original. From the magnificent visuals in the Sontaran segment, to the brillantly written and acted Draconian piece, it serves as a superb continuation of the Doctor Who concept --MykolAn interesting addition to the ""unofficial"" continuations of Dr Who that popped up in the long drought between the Classic and Current versions from Reeltime. All three segments are worth a watch but the standout performance is in the middle section, written and acted by Miles Richardson. ""Prisoner 451"" shows what becomes of a simple act of kindness between enemies and chronicles a love affair with a very familiar book. A little theatrical for film and TV perhaps but movingly written and passionately acted --L.A.MasonSo why can't the BBC make science fiction programmes like this? Simple set pieces, well written dialogue and some potentially good ideas, all rarely seen in this made-for-video release. A waste. The most stand-out episode is the final segmant featuring Sophie Aldred as a stranded pilot who realises she's running out of oxygen. Aldred gives a fine performance of what appears to be a mature version of her DOCTOR WHO character, Ace.

| "Miss Austen Regrets (BBC) [2008] (DVD)" |
| "Olivia Williams, Greta Scacchi and Hugh Bonneville lead an all-star cast in BBC One's feature-length period drama Miss Austen Regrets. Beautifully shot and graced with a splendid performance by Olivia Williams, this Jane Austen biopic focuses on a relatively narrow window in the author's life, serving as something of a companion to Becoming Jane, the 2007 film about a young Austen starring Anne Hathaway. This drama depicts a passionate and emotional chapter of Jane Austen's romantic life, inspired by the great writer's own novels, letters and diaries. As Jane Austen approaches her 40s, her success as a writer is assured and her witty and sharply observed romantic novels are widely admired. To her niece, Fanny Knight , a young, pretty girl desperate to fall in love , Jane is a favourite aunt who offers the wisdom and knowledge to help her in her own search for a happy marriage. Yet, when asked by Fanny to help her vet potential husbands, Jane's usual confident composure is threatened. Surely the woman so capable of writing love on the page must have experienced love herself, so why did she never marry? Protected by her wit, Jane has presented a front as dazzling as many of her novels' young heroines, but as she reflects on her own romantic encounters and affairs, we are drawn into the passions, suitors and choices of her life , the cruel flirting, the proposals spurned and the love that seemed to arrive too late. As she recalls missed opportunities, the doubts arise. Did she make the right choice for herself and her family? Could the great romantic expert have been mistaken? And, could her principles about love and marriage possibly have been ill-judged? Starring: Jane Austen - Olivia Williams Fanny Austen-Knight - Imogene Poots Cassandra - Greta Scacchi Harris Bigg - Samuel Roukin Rev.
