• Pink Floyd - The Wall | DVD | (02/06/2003) from £N/A   |  Saving you £N/A (N/A%)   |  RRP £9.99

  By any rational measure, Alan Parker's cinematic interpretation of Pink Floyd's The Wall is a glorious failure. Glorious because its imagery is hypnotically striking, frequently resonant and superbly photographed by the gifted cinematographer Peter Biziou. And a failure because the entire exercise is hopelessly dour, loyal to the bleak themes and psychological torment of Roger Waters' great musical opus, and yet utterly devoid of the humour that Waters certainly found in his own material. Any attempt to visualise The Wall would be fraught with artistic danger, and Parker succumbs to his own self-importance, creating a film that's as fascinating as it is flawed. The film is, for better and worse, the fruit of three artists in conflict--Parker indulging himself, and Waters in league with designer Gerald Scarfe, whose brilliant animated sequences suggest that he should have directed and animated this film in its entirety. Fortunately, this clash of talent and ego does not prevent The Wall from being a mesmerising film. Boomtown Rats frontman Bob Geldof (in his screen debut) is a fine choice to play Waters's alter ego--an alienated, "comfortably numb" rock star whose psychosis manifests itself as an emotional (and symbolically physical) wall between himself and the cold, cruel world. Weaving Waters's autobiographical details into his own jumbled vision, Parker ultimately fails to combine a narrative thread with experimental structure. It's a rich, bizarre, and often astonishing film that will continue to draw a following, but the real source of genius remains the music of Roger Waters. --Jeff Shannon

  Titles Comprise: Long Good Friday: In the savage and deadly world of the gangland king the man at the top is ruler but only as long as he controls everything in his territory. For that man the rewards can be infinate but so are the dangers. Harold Shand (Bob Hoskins) is enjoying the height of his powers and he is on the verge of something which would make his current 'arrangements' small fry. But stronger forces than even he can control have moved in and taken over. Climaxing in one long bloody day of terror an Easter Good Friday he is to see his empire begin to crack and crumble. Withnail & I London. The '60s. Two unemployed actors-acerbic elegantly wasted Withnail (Richard E. Grant) and the anxiety-ridden I (Paul McGann) - drown their frustrations in booze pills and lighter fluid. When Withnail's Uncle Monty (Richard Griffiths) offers his cottage they escape the squalor of their flat for a week in the country but soon realise they've gone on holiday by mistake when their wits - and friendship - are sorely tested by violent downpours less-than-hospitable locals and empty cupboards. An intelligent superbly acted and hilarious film. Freebird: Three London motorcycle couriers Fred (Gary Stretch) Tyg (Geoff Bell) and Grouch (Phil Daniels) set off from the capital in search of an elusive hippy and his cannabis farm in the Welsh mountains. Originally intended as a nice weekend in the country Fred has now found himself making a promise to his old friend the Chairman that whatever situations arise he will not return empty handed. Grouch has also made a promise that come Monday morning he'll be moving himself and his belongings into his new found love Lucinda's flat and finally making an attempt at the world of serious relationships. As for Tyg no such pact. This is a man who's never been further than the outskirts of London and as far as he's concerned an industrial unit near Heathrow Airport is pretty much the back of beyond. No Tyg's out to explore; to broaden his horizons; to lose any ignorance and soak up the hospitality of another nation. But what are those wild beast noises coming from the woods and why are there two gangs of bikers in the area about to settle an old score? Throw in a seven foot masked lovesick Russian wrestler and things could really get out of hand. That said it may also have something to do with the wild mushrooms they had for breakfast. It's a three and a half hour journey from London to the Welsh mountains but for Fred Tyg and Grouch it's just about to turn into the trip of a lifetime.

His only respite comes from Warden Hazen (James Cromwell) who wants Crewe to help lead his well-equipped prison-guard football team to the league championship. Crewe timorously agrees suggesting the creation of an opposing team of convicts to the give the guards an easy tune-up before the season. To the ragtag inmates this is the chance they've been waiting for and they hustle to get their team together so they can exact some revenge on the harassing guards. (Dir.

• Improve Your Coarse Fishing | DVD | (24/05/2010) from £N/A   |  Saving you £N/A (N/A%)   |  RRP £14.99

  The principal with the Improve Your Coarse Fishing series is to do what the magazine does - concentrating on UK pleasure fishing on the kind of waters anyone can fish and techniques that anyone can use with a bit of application. In presenter Kev Green's words: The series is all about helping people catch more fish and bigger fish on venues they can identify with. We are targeting many different species in many differ ways. We cover carp but the series is by no means all about carp fishing. It's about enjoying the pleasure fishing that the UK has to offer and learning things that will improve your own fishing. Fishing for bream (Bluebell Lakes Northamptonshire) tench and perch (River Nene) are covered as Kevin who is editor of Improve Your Coarse Fishing magazine goes fishing with Angling Times' editor Richard Lee. Don't miss Kevin's visit to Docklow Pools in Herefordshire to show the quality of silver fish sport available on the country's commercial fisheries as he puts his pole to good use to for a superb bag of roach. A brilliant episode sees Kevin joining carp man Steve Broad in a head-to-head at a typical commercial carp pool with Steve using Method tactics for big carp and Kevin giving a masterclass in the use of market floats and spods to target carp in numbers. It's not all about stillwaters though with Kevin 'hooking up' with Bob Robberts for some real Mr. Crabtree style fishing stalking chub and barbel on a picture postcard tributary of the River Trent and there's some amazing underwater footage of barbel and chub feeding to enjoy. Also look out for Kevin teaming up with former Wasps rugby player Jonathan Watt at Hartleylands Farm in Kent. Jonathan shows how to fish (paste) on the bottom for carp with Kevin enjoying plenty of action up in the water with a splasher waggler and big pellet waggler. And Kevin's back with the nation's favourite fish when he visits Lemington Lakes in the Cotswold to target big tench in the margins .........and he bags a personal best on the pole for good measure!
