The seventh and final season of Buffy the Vampire Slayer begins with a mystery: someone is murdering teenage girls all over the world and something is trying hard to drive Spike mad. Buffy is considerably more cheerful in these episodes than we have seen her during the previous year as she trains Dawn and gets a job as student counselor at the newly rebuilt Sunnydale High. Willow is recovering from the magical addiction which almost led her to destroy the world, but all is not yet well with her, or with Anya, who has returned to being a Vengeance demon in "Same Time, Same Place" and "Selfless," and both women are haunted by their decisions. Haunting of a different kind comes in the excellent "Conversations with Dead People" (one of the show's most terrifying episodes ever), in which a mysterious song is making Spike kill again in spite of his soul and his chip. Giles turns up in "Bring on the Night" and Buffy has to fight one of the deadliest vampires of her career in "Showtime". In "Potential" Dawn faces a fundamental reassessment of her purpose in life. Buffy was always a show about female empowerment, but it was also a show about how ordinary people can decide to make a difference alongside people who are special. And it was also a show about people making up for past errors and crimes. So, for example, we have the excellent episodes "Storyteller", in which the former geek/supervillain Andrew sorts out his redemption while making a video diary about life with Buffy; and "Lies My Parents Told Me," in which we find out why a particular folk song sends Spike crazy. Redemption abounds as Faith returns to Sunnydale and the friends she once betrayed, and Willow finds herself turning into the man she flayed. Above all, this was always Buffy's show: Sarah Michelle Gellar does extraordinary work here both as Buffy and as her ultimate shadow, the First Evil, who takes her face to mock her. This is a fine ending to one of television's most remarkable shows. --Roz Kaveney

Captured at the Hammersmith Apollo in London, Shaolin--Wheel of Life is the complete stage event featuring the undoubtedly unique touring group of oriental monks who present a show that mixes a martial arts display with theatre and music. Rather than simply providing a glorified circus, however, the show itself is based on the monks' own history, focusing on the less-than-obvious story of how a religious order evolved into a group of combatants who look as though they could eat Jackie Chan for breakfast. The monks' abilities are truly astounding, ranging from impossibly graceful acrobatics to don't-try-this-at home feats of strength and endurance involving the breaking of wooden poles and concrete slabs and balancing upon disturbingly sharp objects (the narrator, appropriately, is John Hurt). While it's hard to contain the true atmosphere of such an event on video (although anyone who's seen the show will certainly want a copy), the story-line holds the attention and the charming antics of the boy novices will make your mum go "Aaah!". --Roger Thomas
