• Neville's Island | DVD | (15/03/2004) from £N/A   |  Saving you £N/A (N/A%)   |  RRP £5.99

  Neville's Island is an ITV TV film which plays like The Lord of the Flies meets Three Men in a Boat. Except here there are four men, who, when their boat sinks, find themselves stranded on a small island in the middle of the Lake District's Derwent Water with a sausage and an almost defunct mobile phone. Given that our heroes are middle-aged executives on a weekend training exercise, tempers and personalities soon fray. Starting Martin-Men Behaving Badly-Clunes this is essentially a comedy, though the funniest lines go to Timothy Spall as the mercilessly sarcastic Gordon. Jeff Rawle is Neville, the capable team leader, David Bamber the organised Angus, while Clunes has the plum role as Roy, whose mental instability triggers the sometimes-surreal concluding sequences. In a scene paralleling Scream (1996) the rules of the stranded-on-an-island film genre are established, allowing writer Tim Firth to have fun twisting the clichés. He even feints that the film is about to turn into a slasher pic, or the UK's answer to Deliverance (1972). Neville's Island does get a little out of its depth when it ventures into metaphysical waters, but the performances are perfectly judged and the exceptionally sharp dialogue delivers sustained amusement and intermittent belly laughs. On the DVD: There is a basic stills gallery and a list of screen credits for each of the four stars which is misleadingly labelled "biography". Otherwise there are no special features. The sound is effective three channel Dolby Pro logic with the dialogue well presented and Barrington Pheloung's inventive score highlighted. The anamorphically enhanced 1.77:1 ratio picture is occasionally grainy but the DVD clarity does succeed in making a TV film look like a real, albeit low-budget, feature film, with some beautiful daytime cinematography and some imaginative firework shots demonstrating strong contrast and luminosity.--Gary S Dalkin

  For over ten years BAFTA award-winning Martin Clunes has escaped from the world of acting by Scuba diving under the sea in the Maldives. A qualified diver he has, like most divers, become addicted to the silent parallel universe he finds there; with its absurdly vivid colours, and its strangely alien inhabitants. But one resident of these warm, blue waters has so far eluded him - the reef manta; one of evolution's true masterpieces and yet still a creature we know virtually nothing about. If he's lucky he will not only see one, he'll watch and swim with dozens at the same time. Weighing as much as 5000lb, and with a wingspan of up to 25ft, it will be an extended intimate encounter with one of the most iconic species on the planet. Locked in a surreal blue ballet Martin comes closer to these gentle giants than he'd ever imagined possible; moved by their trust and intrigued by the many mysteries which still surround their lives.

• Martin Clunes - A Lion Called Mugie - As Seen on ITV1 | DVD | (13/04/2015) from £7.79   |  Saving you £4.20 (35.00%)   |  RRP £11.99

  It is well into its third decade since lions roamed in the Kora National Reserve where legendary conservationist George Adamson set up a camp to rescue lions and release them back into the wild. The heart breaking but successful story of rescuing orphaned cub Elsa became internationally famous in the blockbuster film Born Free based on the iconic book written by George’s wife Joy. Tony Fitzjohn worked closely with George and continues to work in wildlife conservation. He has lovingly rebuilt George’s original camp Kampi Ya Simba in the Kora National Reserve abandoned after he was murdered by Somali bandits in 1989. Tony picks up where he and George left off all those years ago with the aim of releasing captive and orphaned lions back into the wild with the support of the Kenya Wildlife Service. Martin Clunes has had a close friendship with Tony since they met 20 years ago when they released Nina a zoo elephant back into the wild. In this documentary Martin travels to Kenya to visit Tony and to meet his first lion cub to be brought to the Kora camp for 25 years. Mugie an orphaned lion cub was found when he was just three weeks old washed up on a river bank after a flash flood. Martin and Tony travel 140 miles from Kora to Ol Jogi a 60 000 acre private game sanctuary for some of East Africa’s most endangered wildlife to collect Mugie. Thanks to an electric fence the reserve is protected against poaching allowing the wildlife to flourish. Jamie Gaymer the reserve’s wildlife and security manager has been looking after the cub he named Mugie after the place he was found and contacted Tony to ask if he could take him. Martin says: “While there are about 500 000 elephants left on the continent there are only 30 000 lions. Three years ago a mission began to bring lions back to a remote Kenyan wilderness. From day one I have had the privilege of being a witness to this story. It’s one that stirred deep childhood memories brought great highs and awful lows. This is the true story of one animal’s big adventure and one man’s dream.
