  Season 1: Dreams can come true... especially if you are young, rich, beautiful and yearning for a glamorous life. Lauren has left home to explore a life of fun and fashion in the Hills of Hollywood. She and her best friend, Heidi, have decided to go to the acclaimed Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandising in L.A. Their aspirations for glamorous careers in the big city are so close they can taste it. The plan seems perfect; they have a great apartment, big dreams and each other. Little do they know that dreams don't always look anything like reality, especially when other people are involved. Season 2: With a year in Los Angeles under their belts, Lauren and her friends Heidi, Audrina and Whitney are learning that being young women in the big city isn't as easy as they thought. The girls are older, wiser and now single, facing new challenges at work and school. But this year, when new boys force them to make tough choices, Lauren and the girls are about to find out not even friendship can be taken for granted. Season 3: The girls of The Hills are back for another season, but this time it's a whole different story. Whitney has graduated college and is dealing with the stress of her first real job and the drama of being newly single. Audrina is trying to handle her first real boyfriend ever but hitting the town every night with her single roommate Lauren won't make it easy. Heidi's trying to play house with Spencer and deal with the separation from her best friend Lauren, but when Spencer wants to take their relationship to the next level, who can Heidi turn to for advice? Lauren's had enough of being single and is looking for Mr. Right, but with new responsibilities at “Teen Vogue”, a new roommate, and a boyfriend from her past back in her life, how will she ever find him? Lauren and Heidi haven't spoken at all since Heidi moved in with Spencer. Is Hollywood big enough for one group of close friends who have been torn in two? And when this feud comes to a head, how will Lauren hold it all together? Season 4: The Hills is back for Season 4, and the girls are beginning to make some big decisions that will set the course for the rest of their lives. While Lauren struggles to balance the tension between her roommates, Audrina and Lo, she starts dating Doug, an old flame from Laguna Beach. Meanwhile, Brody, Audrina and just about everyone else warn Lauren not to trust her new friend, Stephanie Pratt (Spencer's sister). And when Lauren makes a surprising discovery about Stephanie and Doug, she realizes that her friends might be right. Just as Audrina thinks it's time to let her boyfriend Justin go and begins dating Colin, Justin turns up the heat in their relationship, leaving her torn. Whitney rises up the ranks at People's Revolution much faster than she expected and meets a model in New York who could possibly sweep her off her feet. And Heidi deals with the consequences of moving back in with Spencer, including putting her job at risk. As if that wasn't enough, Heidi's sister Holly comes from Colorado for an indefinite visit, putting some serious pressure on her renewed relationship with Spencer. During Season 4 of The Hills, life in Los Angeles only gets more complicated as friendships, relationships and loyalties are tested like never before. Season 5: Season 5 kicks off with a big surprise when best friends are reunited, as Heidi shows up for Lauren’s birthday party. Lauren realises their friendship may never be what it once was, but will a tearful reunion be enough to bring them back together? And after a guy’s night out ends with Spencer hitting on a beautiful bartender, Heidi has to ask herself if he’s the guy who makes her happy, or the cause of all her problems. After moving to suburbia for life of wedded bliss, Heidi and Spencer quickly discover that married life isn’t as perfect as their storybook wedding. As Lauren says goodbye, Kristin Cavallari arrives back on the scene. She’s got L.A. nearly conquered, but she has yet to find the one special person to share it with. Brody looks like he’s almost ready to settle down with girlfriend Jayde, but with his ex-girlfriend Kristin hanging around, how long can that last? Audrina is making steps to move on from Justin, but he’s the kind of guy a girl never really gets over. And even having a new man in her life doesn’t mean she’s ready to see Justin out with Lauren’s old rival, Kristin. New romances, old enemies and enduring friendships all come together to change life in The Hills forever. Season 6: In the final season of The Hills, Kristin, Audrina and Heidi learn that the people they love the most are the hardest to hold on to. No one has changed more than Heidi. Because of her cosmetic surgeries, Heidi has to endure the disapproval of her mother and friends. And a year into their marriage, Spencer is more distant from his family and friends than ever before. The Hills may be coming to an end but it's not over until it's over, and the end is just beginning.

• Taken | DVD | (21/04/2003) from £63.99   |  Saving you £-44.00 (N/A%)   |  RRP £19.99

  Steven Spielberg's alien abduction opus Taken is what happens when you cross-breed Close Encounters of the Third Kind with The Waltons. Obviously flushed with the success of the TV mini-series Band of Brothers, Spielberg's Dreamworks studio has created an equally epic 10-part story chronicling 50 years of habitual abduction over several generations of three American families. Beginning with the most notorious alien cover-up in US history, the 1947 "crash" at Roswell, New Mexico, Taken introduces the "Greys" and the families they routinely abduct, probe and, in a couple of cases, impregnate over the course of the ten hour-and-a-half-long episodes. The three families are: the Keys, from which first Russell, then his son Jessie, then grandson Danny, are all abducted; the Clarkes, who are descended from a liaison between lonely put-upon housewife Sally Clarke and one of the Roswell crash survivors; and the Crawfords, the ruthless G-men who are committed to uncovering the purpose behind the alien visitations at any cost. But even though the Greys' actions are at best ambiguous and at worst hostile, Taken is basically a soap opera, lacking the sinister undercurrent of either Dark Skies or The X-Files despite its science-fiction trappings. Nevertheless, this is an engaging series which has decent performances--most notably Joel Gretsch as psychotic Owen Crawford--special effects and an engaging enough storyline to make it entertaining, if somewhat disposable, TV. --Kristen Bowditch
