The Frost / Nixon interviews are now recognised as one of the great media events of the Twentieth Century. First broadcast in May 1977, they drew the biggest ever worldwide audience for a news interview. Forty-five million people watched in America alone. During twenty eight and three quarter gruelling hours, Frost questioned Nixon on everything from Vietnam to China, from abuse of power to the Final Days. But the most tense and gripping sessions were on Watergate. Two whole days were devoted to the subject. Never before and never afterwards would Nixon confront the issue of Watergate, particularly in a forum where he had no knowledge of the questions and no right even to see the edited programme before it was broadcast. A picture emerges of a White House under siege, of burglars and hush money, of a Nixon close to tears, having to sacrifice his closest aides culminating in the unprecedented sight of a President apologising to his people. The DVD includes a brand new interview, exclusively for Amazon, where, after nearly 30 years Sir David Frost takes a look back at the circumstances surrounding the Frost Nixon programme and answers questions on how he came to secure the film that all big TV companies wanted and what Nixon said to him in the weeks following the broadcast to the American people. Available for the first time in nearly 30 years - Frost / Nixon: The Watergate Interview is exclusively available from Amazon.

Over a thirty year career in television, David Nixon's subtle blend of magic, music and comedy was loved by millions and is fondly remembered to this day. In his heyday during the 1970s, Nixon was hardly ever offscreen and David Nixon's Magic Box and The David Nixon Show were firm favourites with the viewing public. For Nixon, though, Christmas had its own special magic as can be seen in these two classic festive specials from the mid-'70s, whose guests include the lovely Aimi MacDonald, famed illusionist Robert Harbin, pop chanteuse Lynsey de Paul, vaudevillian comic George Carl, international singing star Caterina Valente and ventriloquist Shari Lewis with her feisty sock puppet, Lamb Chop!

The Spider's Web is a 1960 British murder mystery farce directed by Godfrey Grayson and starring Glynis Johns, John Justin, Peter Butterworth, Cicely Courtneidge and Jack Hulbert. An adaptation of the play by Agatha Christie, this classic who done it, set in the traditional country house, follows the appearance and then disappearance of a dead body. The household of Diplomat Henry Hailsham-Brown and wife Clarissa (Glynis Johns) are thrown into turmoil, as each character suspects that another is guilty of the murder and endeavours to cover it up from Police Inspector Lord (Peter Butterworth, star of the Carry On series of British films) who has the unenviable job of unravelling their various ham fisted deceptions and solving the mystery.
Jay Trotter has waited a lifetime for this day. He's got a hot tip on a horse everyone thinks is ready for the glue factory. But as track aficionados say ""Even when you know you never know"". One thing you can be sure of is that with Richard Dreyfuss David Johansen Teri Garr and more this is a winning comedy. Robbie Coltrane gives an hilarious performance as the pestered bookie always sceptical of Trotter's run of luck. Its characters give new meaning to ""the odds"". And its h
