    On July 3rd 1938, a streamlined locomotive of the London north Eastern Railway shot to everlasting fame by breaking the world speed record for steam. The speed achieved that day on Stoke Bank, 126 miles per hour, was never to be equalled by any other steam locomotive. The A4 Pacific No. 4468, named Mallard, was designed by Sir Nigel Gresley for work on high speed passenger trains, a task which she performed admirably until she was withdrawn from service in 1963. This program follows the fully restored Mallard in 1988, the 50th anniversary of her record-breaking run. It starts with the boiler test and a special run for filming in the York-Harrogate-Leeds-York circle during which driver Harry Wilson's efforts in the cab were recorded on the very day he retired. The cameras were in Banbury for the postal run in May but the real celebrations began exactly 50 years from the day of the record. We took a helicopter to record Mallard on the East Coast Main Line and later on the threatened Settle and Carlisle line. Mallard was also captured by the cameras in many other locations and the opening of the National Railway Museum's Archives has allowed us to bring you the full story of this wonderful locomotive.

  • Anvil - The Story Of Anvil [Blu-ray] [2008]Anvil - The Story Of Anvil | Blu Ray | (15/06/2009) from £N/A   |  Saving you £N/A (N/A%)   |  RRP £24.99

    Nearly three decades on, is Anvil! The Story Of Anvil finally the film that finally gives This Is Spinal Tap a run for its money? Quite possibly so. The recipient of far-reaching acclaim, and with a real run for being named film of the year, this is a superb documentary, that is all the more staggering for being true. Anvil! The Story Of Anvil follows the band of its title, a heavy metal group who enjoyed moderate success in the late 70s and early 80s, but kept going even when the light of fame and success shone elsewhere. Thus, we meet the band’s members--Steve ‘Lips’ Kudlow and Robb Reiner--as they hold down day jobs, record an album and head off on a European tour that could have been taken straight out of the Spinal Tap playbook. As Anvil! The Story Of Anvil develops, though, there’s a drama at the heart of it that mixes in with the many frequent laughs. And, as it turns out, it’s a film that out of nowhere manages to move you, pretty much the last thing you expect of it. This is, and there’s no two ways about it, a quite brilliant film, and one of the very best documentaries in some time. It’s outrageously entertaining, very funny and yet human to the core. Anvil! The Story Of Anvil is going to take some beating, and don’t be surprised if it’s another three decades before anything else comes close to it and This Is Spinal Tap… --Jon Foster

    Deadliest Catch takes you deep into the world of the Bering Sea as we follow seven vessels and their crews through the most brutal fishing seasons on the planet - Red King Crab and Opilio Crab. Forty-foot waves, hurricane winds, sleep deprivation, and operating heavy machinery on a pitching deck, are just a few reasons the injury rate is one hundred percent. The rugged Adventurers who fish these waters are the real draw. Crabbers have the mindset of pirates - high risk for high reward - and putting life and limb on the line is just part of the job.The crabbing season kicks off in October. Captain Sig Hansen, a 30-year veteran and a third generation fisherman, will match his skills against his old rivals, Phil Harris of the Cornelia Marie, the Hillstrand brothers of the Time Bandit, and Captain Keith Colburn of the Wizard. The fleet will push hundreds of miles out to sea and fish four hundred feet deep in search of the prized crustaceans. The captains will strategize, and the crews will be pushed to their limits of mental and physical endurance as they repeatedly drop and haul the 700-pound crab pots. Before the season is out, the men will face down huge storms, severe injury, a ticking clock and each other to bring in the King crab harvest.Three new boats join the fray. The 78-ft Lisa Marie, the smallest boat in the fleet, will battle waves that seem to swallow the vessel.Aboard the Incentive, a team of old salts can’t find the crab. While on the Trailblazer, a crew is haunted by a near-fatal incident from a few years ago when a man went overboard only to be narrowly saved by Capt. Jonathan Hillstrand.

    Book: The Battle of the Somme bookazine gives an in-depth understanding into what happened during the Battle of Somme split into 6 concise chapters: DVD: WWI Somme - Secret Tunnel Wars: Under the trenches and fields of the Somme lies a complex and extensive network of tunnels. Here, beneath the wastes of No Man s Land, British and German miners risked a terrible death in trying to undermine the enemy, laying charges that would wreak death and destruction in the tunnels around them and in trenches above. It was the most barbaric conflict of the Great War, a secret but deadly game of blindfold cat-and-mouse where it was kill or be killed: there was no second place for the loser. The slightest sound could be overheard. Detection meant counter-mining, and an explosion from nowhere that could tear you apart, maim, bury you alive or poison you with gas. At least 45,000 British soldiers worked beneath the Somme battlefields. But who were they? With unique access to both British and German workings that have been untouched and unexplored since 1918, we can explore these ghost tunnels, and reveal the lives and stories of the men who built, lived, worked and died in them. BONUS DISC: WWI THE GREAT WAR 1916 ALSO INCLUDES TRENCH MAPS
