  Nanny McPhee: In this dark and witty fable, Thompson portrays a person of unsettling appearance and magical powers who enters the household of the recently widowed Mr. Brown (Firth) and attempts to tame his seven exceedingly ill-behaved children. The children, led by the oldest boy Simon (Love Actually's Thomas Sangster), have managed to drive away 17 previous nannies and are certain that they will have no trouble with this one. But as Nanny McPhee takes control, they begin to notice that their vile behavior now leads swiftly and magically to rather startling consequences. Her influence also extends to the family's deeper problems, including Mr. Brown's sudden and seemingly inexplicable attempts to find a new wife; an announcement by the domineering Aunt Adelaide (Angela Lansbury) that she intends to take one of the children away; and the sad and secret longings of their scullery maid, Evangeline (Kelly Macdonald).

Twenty-six years later, Judy (Kirsten Dunst) and Peter (Bradley Pierce) discover the dusty board and reawaken the game as they begin to play. Instantly the forces of Jumanji release a fully-grown, bewildered Alan Parrish (Robin Williams) into their world. With each roll of the dice they must face the increasingly terrifying consequences until the game is finished and the victor had uttered the word Jumanji... Thunderbirds: International Rescue, run in secret by the Tracy family and led by Jeff (Bill Paxton), is permamently on standby to offer assistance when accidents and incidents threaten lives across the world.

• Spice World - the Movie | DVD | (01/10/1999) from £N/A   |  Saving you £N/A (N/A%)   |  RRP £5.99

  One of the reasons that the Spice Girls remain so much fun is that in the great British tradition, they don't take themselves too seriously. Like The Beatles before them, the girls are more than happy to take pot-shots at their own manufactured image, something that Spiceworld: The Movie revels in. It doesn't hurt, of course, that plenty of others are along for the ride: Richard E. Grant chews scenery as the road manager; Meat Loaf is the kindly, ever-reliable bus driver; Elvis Costello (!) makes a tongue-in-cheek cameo; and Roger Moore is... well, bizarre. The plot, as such, is merely a convenience, somehow tying together the girls' first-ever live concert, a pregnant friend, a documentary film crew, a non-Spice love story, and something or other about a tabloid photographer. But that's not the point--what matters here is a surprisingly deft touch by director Bob Spiers and a script that refuses to take anything too seriously; the result is a gentle self-parody that knows just how far to take the joke. --Randy Silver

• The Complete Roobarb and Custard | DVD | (16/05/2016) from £8.17   |  Saving you £26.82 (328.27%)   |  RRP £34.99

  With its famously ˜wobbly' animation, wacky theme music and gloriously silly word play, the original 1974 series of Roobarb won instant acclaim and the hearts of some 7 million teatime viewers. And not all of them were children! Now on DVD together for the very first time, the original 30-episode 1974 series and the second series made over a quarter of a decade on have lost none of their surreal charm and sheer silliness. Created by Grange Calveley, the lovably loopy Roobarb's boundless enthusiasm gets him into all sorts of hilarious scrapes and he's constantly hindered as well as helped by his best friend Custard the cat. Such has been their popularity over the decades that the green and pink duo were voted ˜Britain's Best Animated Cartoon Characters' in 2000 an accolade that led to the creation of Roobarb and Custard Too. Of course, as well as the famously hand-drawn style the gently twinkling voice of the late Richard Briers CBE has a great deal to do with the show's enduring appeal it's impossible to imagine Roobarb with any other voice!
