  The programmes contained on this disc have rarely, if ever, been seen at their full technical potential and certainly not on the medium they were originally designed for. It is the legacy of both producers and contributors who aspired to high production values but only now can their work be fully appreciated. These new high definition transfers and restorations from the original 35mm elements herald a new era for these iconic shows for both loyal fans and new audiences.

• The Sherlock Holmes Catalogue - The Three Gables / The Dying Detective | DVD | (28/04/2003) from £14.26   |  Saving you £-1.28 (N/A%)   |  RRP £9.99

  An old widow, Mrs Maberley (Mary Ellis), receives a suspicious offer of a large sum of money to move out of her depressing mansion and leave absolutely everything behind. Sherlock Holmes (Jeremy Brett) looks into this strange proposition and comes face to face with an enforcer and powerful pugilist (Steve Toussaint), who Holmes cuts down to size with verbal agility. Less lucky is Dr Watson (Edward Hardwicke), who goes a round with the oversized fellow after he catches him terrorising poor Mrs Maberley. This adaptation may, in all honesty, be an improvement on Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's original story. As usual, Brett and Hardwicke are an exceptional team as Holmes and Watson. --Tom Keogh

• Jason King - Vol. 1 - Episodes 1 And 2 - Wanna Buy A TV Series? / A Page Before Dying | DVD | (10/07/2000) from £N/A   |  Saving you £N/A (N/A%)   |  RRP £9.99

  Although crime-writer-turned-detective Jason King, as played by the deep-voiced Peter Wyngarde, was the star supporting character of the 1969-70 series Department S, he seemed rather diminished when given a show of his own, thus robbing him of the straight characters necessary to show off his flamboyance. Jason King also ditched the impossible mysteries of the parent series in favour of more ordinary puzzles that the Saint or any other two-fisted hero could have solved without having to spend so much on fabulous fashion gear. That said, Wyngarde is well-matched by his foils, the value-for-money hams Dennis Price and Ronald Lacey, as the government agents who forced Jason to catch villains for them by threatening to turn him in for failing to pay his back taxes on the earnings of his bestsellers. Jason King was also the only hero on television who would take any brutal beating from the bad guys and shrug it off, only to become quite agitated when they threatened to slice his suits to bits. Volume One includes: "Wanna Buy a Television Series", in which Jason pitches a series based on his books, with guest star Anna Palk; and "A Page Before Dying" wherein Jason's latest book gives away spy secrets, and he's kidnapped to East Germany. --Kim Newman
