• Donal MacIntyre's Underworld - Volume 1 | DVD | (19/11/2007) from £16.92   |  Saving you £3.07 (18.14%)   |  RRP £19.99

  Investigative reporter Donal MacIntyre delves into the murky waters of Britain's underworld for a round of powerful observational films on some of the country's most infamous criminals. Spending months at a time immersed in their world MacIntyre explores the day-to-day lives of some of Britains most feared and dangerous gangsters. In contrast with the undercover investigations he has carried out in the past MacIntyre does not set out to expose criminals in this series. Instead he delivers an honest and thought-provoking insight into a world that few see and even fewer are prepared to admit exists.

• Wild Weather | DVD | (02/12/2002) from £8.15   |  Saving you £11.84 (145.28%)   |  RRP £19.99

  Wild Weather is a major BBC documentary exploring the extremes of the world's climate with the engaging presenter Donal MacIntyre. The four one-hour programmes focus on wind, wet, cold and heat, and explore how these produce hurricanes, monsoons, ice storms and tornadoes, as well as regulate the global environment. MacIntyre, best known for his investigative series MacIntyre Undercover (1999), travels the world, from beneath the North Pole to the saturated humidity of the Belise tropical rainforest. Bringing to mind the daredevil John Noakes from 1970s Blue Peter, MacIntyre skydives, is battered by a wild tunnel, frozen in an ice-box, subjected to a reservoir flood and endures a marathon across the Sahara. Survivors' accounts tell the stories of such disasters as Hurricane Andrew, a New York state snow storm and the flood of Britain's eastern coast in 1953. The intelligent use of computer graphics enhances clear explanations of the jet stream, ocean currents and other phenomena, in a series which is part geography lesson (but with a great teacher), part reality TV entertainment show. Occasional flash-cut editing and some inappropriate techno/drum & bass on the soundtrack will irritate viewers who remember life before MTV, but otherwise this is an excellent mainstream documentary series. --Gary S Dalkin

The band are filmed on stage with riot police surrounding the venue performing as the forces of law and order move in to shut down their hate-filled act.
