| RRP AUDREY HEPBURN IN THE MOVIES DVD:Audrey Hepburn In The Movies is a celebration of this extraordinary star who occupies a unique place in the hearts and minds of film goers worldwide. Her quiet dignity and incandescent smile distinguish all her films, which this retrospective DVD of the Belgian-born beauty s illustrious film career examines. This DVD documentary by film-maker Les Kratz contains more than 50 of Audrey s most entertaining scenes from her best movies. The clips on the DVD documentary are scenes from the following movies: Breakfast at Tiffany s, Love in the Afternoon, Sabrina, Charade, My Fair Lady, Two for the Road, The Children s Hour, The Nun s Story, The Unforgiven, Funny Face, Robin and Marian, Wait Until Dark, How to Steal a Million, Roman Holiday, War and Peace. LITTLE BOOK OF Audrey HEPBURN IN THE MOVIES: In the 60 years since Roman Holiday transformed the exballerina into a superstar, Audrey Hepburn has inspired the kind of mass adoration usually reserved for deities. If anything, the cult of Hepburn has grown exponentially since her death in 1993. She is probably Hollywood s most beloved star, revered for her humanitarian work as well has her film career and innate style. By all accounts modest and self-effacing, Hepburn never bought into her own myth. There are no stories of diva-like histrionics or drunken benders in the scores of books, articles and Internet fan sites that exhaustively chronicle her life and career. In the rarefied and pampered world of Hollywood, where every whim is indulged and bad behaviour excused as artistic temperament, Hepburn was a gracious anomaly. Simply put, Hepburn is sui generis: a singular talent whose essence cannot be duplicated, no matter how many actresses try to evoke her. Audrey Hepburn - In The Movies is a celebration of this extraordinary star who occupies a unique place in the hearts and minds of moviegoers

LITTLE BOOK OF BRITISH 60 s MUSIC: The 1960 s was simply the most exciting decade in music history known to man. The eruption of talent after the discovery of the Mersey Sound, spearheaded of course by the Fab Four, changed the world. What was special was that for a glorious and colourful short period of time, hardly a week went by without some new creative talent emerging on our airwaves, some new direction in music being created; something fresh to excite us being presented for our edification. Looking back at the charts week by week you realise that there was an explosion in song writing, a huge growth in people being interested in music and as a result some really great sounds were made. In this book we have not tried to quantify that, or even order those bands and artists who helped to change our society and our way of looking at it, but we have created a top 40 of artists that simply could not be ignored for what they did.

| RRP WEAPONS THAT CHANGED THE WORLD DVD: Colt 45 - Created by legendary gun designer, John Moses Browning, the stopping power of its .45 ACP (Automatic Colt Pistol) cartridge led the M1911 to be the standard-issue service pistol of the U.S. military for 75 years. 100 years after its introduction, the M1911 is still carried by servicemen today. We also compare the M1911 to one of its early rivals, the German Luger P08, as well as the pistol that replaced it as the official sidearm for U.S. military forces, the 9mm Beretta, to see how the .45 round gained its worldwide reputation as the ultimate man stopper. Battle Rifles - In combat, your rifle is your closest companion. Your life depends on its accuracy, ease of use, and ability to take a beating. Over the past 300 years, the battlefield has seen many great rifles from the black powder musket, to Bolt Action breech-loaders, to semi-auto wonders like the M1 Garand the rifle that won World War II. Get into the trenches with an arsenal of historic battle rifles, to find out how the lowly musket evolved into a Weapon That Changed The World! LITTLE BOOK OF THE HISTORY OF GUNS: Weapons have been used since the beginning of civilisation. Primitive designs used for hunting animals led to weapons that were used for defence and warfare. Before guns came bows, spears, crossbows, hand axes, clubs, swords, daggers and many other implements, designed with the sole purpose of inflicting terminal injury on the unfortunate recipient. The history of the development of guns throughout the centuries is intrinsically linked to historical military events from the Fall of Constantinople in 1453, the Battle of Pavia in 1525, the French Revolution in 1789, the American Civil War in 1861 to World War I and World War II in the 20th century, taking us to the requirements and developments that warfare in the modern world dictates today. The impact that guns have had on world history is most certainly profound. The History of Guns is a fascinating and of course vast subject. This is not a catalogue of every model of every gun through history to date, but instead looks at the historical evolution of generic categories of guns together with who, how and why key gun design changes were developed and implemented over the centuries.

| RRP EGYPT MANIA DVD: The Egyptian Museum in Cairo was officially inaugurated on 15th November 1902. As this programme explores its rooms, a long history of splendour and mystery comes back to life before our eyes. This is a place where man s great discoveries become legend, like the deeds and monuments of the great pharaohs of antiquity. The Egyptian civilisation began to develop in about 4000 BC. This was an era that started in the very dawn of history. The pharaohs were simply local princes and Egypt had not yet been unified. For 3300 years, a boy-king fulfilled the dream of every pharaoh: resting in peace amidst marvels unknown to mortals. For three generations, his treasure has inspired the world. This is the treasure of Tutankhamen. It is just one of the countless marvels conserved in the most majestic temple of Egyptian art: The Egyptian Museum in Cairo. This programme takes you on a tour of the statues, manuscripts, paintings, and other treasures held in the museum. LITTLE BOOK OF ANCIENT EGYPT: In the summer of 1972, TV news featured huge crowds queuing patiently on the pavements outside the British Museum to see the Tutankhamun Exhibition. So great was the clamour to see the exhibition that it had to be extended from the planned six months to nine months to accommodate total visitors of almost 1.7 million. But the world s interest in Ancient Egypt long pre-dates the discovery of Tutankhamun s tomb. Egypt s hot, dry climate has preserved almost perfectly the evidence of an ancient civilisation: the pyramids, massive stone statues and tombs in the Valley of the Kings. Most Egyptologists agree that simple antiquity is a major part of Ancient Egypt s appeal. There is a mysterious nature to anything that is thousands of years old and mystery intrigues us all. In this very accessible introduction, we ll explore those mysteries, providing details of the ancient civilisation s temples, tombs, kings and culture. And we won t forget the myths and mysteries surrounding the death of the boy king Tutankhamun, dead at the age of just 19. Did he inherit a genetic condition from his father, Akhenaten, did he die of malaria or, most intriguing of all, was he murdered?

Find out about each machine and its place in agricultural history. The first programme features the story of David Brown Tractors - a key name in British Tractor history - from their early beginnings through to the 1960s. We then pick up the David Brown story in the 1970's in the second instalment when the use of these well-loved tractors expanded from working on the farm to the production of industrial models for use on the highways. We look at a number of models hard at work in a variety of situations. In the final instalment of the David Brown story we come up to date with numerous purchasers including CASE IH and the subsequent development and production of new machines.

Little Book of Tractors also takes a look at unusual tractor designs and specialist tractors tractor trials farming implements and what future challenges face manufacturers as they work to make their tractors more cost efficient and less polluting than ever before. But most of all this affectionate tribute shows how tractors have not only been indispensable to farmers but become part of the fabric of country life dearly loved by the people.

| RRP HISTORY OF THE GWR DVD: This superb programme looks at the GWR God s Wonderful Railway as it was in the 1950s and 1960s and more recently. Archive scenes capture the true essence of the GWR with its Brunellian stations and station platforms, engines, lines, freight yards and engine sheds. We can enjoy magnificent engines including some of the Castle and King Class that were turned out at Swindon. These include the 4079 Pendennis Castle, 5029 Nunney Castle, 7020 Gloucester Castle, 6000 King George V, 6024 King Edward I and others that have since ended up at the cutters. We also see engines that have been used on these lines of late including the Eurostar, Intercity 125s, the high speed trains on the Heathrow Express Service, ARC stone trains as well as single, twoand three-car units. And our look at the GWR wouldn t be complete without a visit to preserved lines including the Taff Valley Railway and the Cholsey and Wallingford Railway. HISTORY OF THE GWR LITTLE BOOK: To paraphrase the old army adage, there were three ways of doing things: the right way, the wrong way and the Great Western Way. Right from its start in the 1830s the Great Western quickly established its own distinctive and idiosyncratic way of life. Not least with the bold decision to adopt a track gauge of 7 0¼ when every other railway at the time was happy to standardise at 4 8½ . But, as this History of the Great Western will show, the railway with its excellently designed and engineered locomotives is just our starting point. The GWR had extensive shipping interests, ran buses and lorries and even had its own air service. It ran docks, restaurants and hotels and in the restaurant cars you could read the Great Western magazine, drink Great Western whisky and eat Great Western biscuits with your cheese. With this total embrace and a consciously different approach from other lines it s no surprise that passengers and employees thought the GWR superior to what they regarded as the other lesser railway companies. In some ways perhaps it was but there s certainly no doubt the GWR has had a long held appeal, and not just for dedicated railway enthusiasts. In this book as well as addressing historical details and technical facts we ll try to discover just what it was.

| RRP In the early hours of June 6th 1944 Allied forces began the greatest military assault ever attempted. They came to Normandy by both air and sea with one objective: to get a toehold on the continent and from there begin the long campaign that would result in the liberation of Europe and the end of the Second World War. The assault was conducted in two phases an airborne attack by 24 000 paratroopers and glider pilots followed by an amphibious landing across Normandy's sandy beaches. Using personal testimonies we tell the dramatic stories of the men who took part: the British and American paratroopers and glider infantry men who crewed tanks infantry soldiers who were deposited on the Normandy beaches by landing craft and RAF crews who took part in the deception plan that convinced Hitler and his generals that Calais was the main target for the assault. The veterans' words are illustrated by dramatic archive and colour footage of key locations. By telling their stories in their own words we get a snap shot of what it was like to be part of the enormous undertaking.

| RRP THE INVINCIBLES DVD: 1974 British and Irish Lions Tour of South African In 1974 the South African apartheid regime was under worldwide condemnation; in defiance of a developing international policy to isolate South Africa, the British and Irish Lions rugby team controversially accepted the invitation to tour the country and play a test series against their ancient rivals. The series was one of the most violent in Lions history; yet those 22 matches produced remarkable rugby and many memorable tries. The Lions enjoyed unparalleled success and they went unbeaten, going down in rugby legend as The Invincibles . This film, which includes unique personal footage from the players, is both a thrilling celebration of a remarkable rugby team and a poignant reminder of the scale of change in South Africa since that landmark tour. Interviews include personal insights from the following: Willie-John McBride, Gareth Edwards, JJ Williams, JPR Williams, Fran Cotton, Roger Uttley, Fergus Slattery, Makhenkesi Stofile (Minister of Sport RSA) and Peter Hain MP. GREATEST MOMENTS OF RUGBY LITTLE BOOK: Few people can dispute that rugby is the most passionate sport in the world and there can be no more dramatic spectacle than 30 players giving their all in a brutal encounter. The combination of skill and courage makes lions out of limbs and the social side of rugby leads to many friendly arguments as to who were the best players and what were the best matches. This book gives ample food for thought by highlighting such memorable moments as Jonny Wilkinson kicking England to World Cup glory, Gareth Edwards scoring the greatest ever try for the Ba Bas, and Jonah Lomu walking through England s defence on his way to another try. More recently, the great games haven t come much better than the British & Irish Lions sensational victory in the third test against the Wallabies to seal the series in 2013 which made a world superstar out of Leigh Halfpenny. The debates will continue to rage and if nothing else, this book will give you
