• Escape From Dunkirk | DVD | (30/05/2005) from £N/A   |  Saving you £N/A (N/A%)   |  RRP £2.99

  Winston Churchill described the mass evacuation of the beaches of Dunkirk in 1940 as a miracle of deliverance and for the thousands of Allied servicemen facing certain death or capture it was a sentiment that they wholeheartedly agreed with.For the people of Great Britain although the rescue from Dunkirk had boosted morale tremendously it was nonetheless a victory for Adolf Hitler and paved the way for his plans to invade the British Isles. Yet from a strategic point of view it is a fascinating marker of Hitler's errors of judgement even if it appeared he was on a winning run. Escape from Dunkirk tells of this remarkable episode from World War II history which proved beyond doubt that courage in the face of adversity could triumph even against seemingly impossible odds.

  In the great nation of Emperor Penguins deep in Antarctica you're nobody unless you can sing-which is unfortunate for Mumble (Elijah Wood) who is the worst singer in the world. He is born dancing to his own tune...tap dancing. Though Mumble's mum Norma Jean (Nicole Kidman) thinks this little habit is cute his dad Memphis (Hugh Jackman) says it 'just ain't penguin.' Besides they both know that without a Heartsong Mumble may never find true love. As fate would have it his one friend Gloria (Brittany Murphy) happens to be the best singer around. Mumble and Gloria have a connection from the moment they hatch but she struggles with his strange 'hippity- hoppity' ways. Mumble is just too different-especially for Noah the Elder (Hugo Weaving) the stern leader of Emperor Land who ultimately casts him out of the community. Away from home for the first time Mumble meets a posse of decidedly un-Emperor-like penguins-the Adelie Amigos. Led by Ramon (Robin Williams) the Adelies instantly embrace Mumble's cool dance moves and invite him to party with them. In Adelie Land Mumble seeks the counsel of Lovelace the Guru (also voiced by Robin Williams) a crazy-feathered Rockhopper penguin who will answer any of life's questions for the price of a pebble. Together with Lovelace and the Amigos Mumble sets out across vast landscapes and after some epic encounters proves that by being true to yourself you can make all the difference in the world.

  D-day - Assault On Fortress Europe: Early in the morning of 6th June 1944 a vast and bizarre armada ploughed steadily against stiff head-winds through the rough waters of the English Channel heading for the Normandy coast. Amongst the 5 000 vessels were many of the best British and American warships of stupendous collective firepower as well as ancient battleships and tankers on their last voyage destined to be sunk to provide breakwaters. Thousands of the craft had been built to make one short journey only; to ferry the invading allied forces together with their immense diversity of equipment on the last difficult dangerous stretch from the transports to the shore of enemy-occupied France. It was D-Day. Four years in the planning two in the organising and one day in the execution the landing in Normandy was easily the largest and most extraordinary combined military operation ever attempted. It was also a crucial one had D-Day failed the Western Allies would have found it impossible to launch another operation for at least a year or more and today's map of Europe might have been very different. One of the millions taking part in the landings Admiral Ramsay was famous for his dislike of even the slightest exaggeration. As Operation Overlord got under way he told his officers Gentlemen I am sorry about all the superlatives today they happen to be true. Here is that story. The Normandy Battles: After the D-Day landings in June 1944 the Allied troops found themselves up against stiff German defensive positions. As a result of the desperate fighting which followed the German Army was pushed back towards Paris and the tide of the war was finally flowing in favour of the Allies. This programme tells the story of the mighty battle for the town of Caen and of the shambles of Operation Goodwood one of the great British disasters of the Second World War. Featuring archive footage informative maps and graphics and an interview with the Rt Hon Viscount Montgomery of El Alamein CBE. Narrated by Michael Leighton. Winston Churchill - His Finest Hour - The Great Wartime Speeches: Audio CD - 12 Speeches The words of the man who offered his nationblood toil tears and sweat. Listen to the poignant sometimes comical but always inspirational words of the wartime British Prime Minister as he rallied a country to face the spread of evil. His familiar words echo a time when our very liberties were under threat and yet out of this bleak dark time came Britain's finest hour.
