• Lansky | DVD | (17/02/2003) from £12.98   |  Saving you £-6.99 (N/A%)   |  RRP £5.99

  Meyer Lansky was an enigma. Few knew him. Many feared him. He was passionately loyal to his friends and ruthless towards his enemies. He was calm and calculating. He seemed above reproach. Lansky is based on the true story of a young Jewish immigrant from Poland who grew up on the impoverished streets of the Lower East Side of New York at the turn of the 20th Century. Turning his back on poverty Lansky (Richard Dreyfuss) embarked on a life of crime. He monopolised racketeering bootlegging gambling and organised crime with a keeness of mind and shrewdness never before seen. Partnered with his childhood friend Ben Bugsy Siegel (Eric Roberts) and young Italian street thug Charlie Lucky Luciano (Anthony LaPaglia) Lansky earned notoriety that eventually made him the object of several FBI investigations and congressional hearings. Directed by John McNaughton this HBO production is a fascinating tale of loyalty and deception innocence and guilt crime and murder.

• Wittmann vs Ekins - The Death of a Panzer Ace | DVD | (01/05/2010) from £18.63   |  Saving you £4.35 (27.81%)   |  RRP £19.99

  The story of two men destined to face each other on the battlefields of Normandy is told in this programme. Michael Wittmann was a knight of the Nazi empire a natural and accomplished soldier and highly decorated. Like Wittmann Trooper Joe Ekins a shoemaker from Northamptonshire was a volunteer for military service but there the similarities ended. Joe was a reluctant soldier in a county yeomanry armoured regiment while Wittmann served in the Waffen SS s elite Tiger Battalion. Panzer ace Wittmann had 138 tank kills to his name including an impressive score against 7th Armoured Division at Villers Bocage early in the Normandy Campaign but by August 1944 the Allied breakout was gaining momentum and I SS Panzer Corps were struggling to contain the British and Canadians as they fought towards Falaise. In the fields south of Caen Wittmann s Tiger and Joe Ekins s Sherman Firefly were pitted against each other but how was the Panzer Ace finally knocked out? Joe Ekins Veteran of the Battle of Normandy and the North West European Campaign Joe Ekins fought with the Northamptonshire Yeomanry and during Operation Totalise the British and Canadian breakout from the Normandy Beachhead he was a gunner in a Sherman Firefly. This was the only Allied tank that could knock out the much feared mighty German Tiger tank at anything other than the closest of ranges. During the desperate battle he knocked out three Tigers and a Panzer Mark IV. At the end of the war preferring the anonymity of being a shoemaker in civi-street Joe attempted to keep a low profile but over the years his achievement of knocking out the vaunted German SS panzer ace Michael Wittmann denied him obscurity. Stung by some wilful misrepresentation of facts and his views Joe has for the first time told his story for this DVD in full and in detail.

• The Sherlock Holmes Catalogue - The Last Vampyre | DVD | (28/04/2003) from £N/A   |  Saving you £N/A (N/A%)   |  RRP £9.99

  The Last Vampyre is an overblown two-hour adaptation of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's short story "The Adventure of the Sussex Vampire", and was perhaps the most ill-advised of Granada Television's Sherlock Holmes series. Entirely contrary to the tone and spirit of Doyle's tale--which finds Holmes victoriously pitting his well-grounded deductive powers against irrational fears of a rise in blood sucking--The Last Vampyre is something of an embarrassment to the largely wonderful legacy of Granada's earlier efforts. (For the record, most of the creative executives who, along with star Jeremy Brett, had made the beloved series what it was in the 1980s were replaced by 1992, the year of this film.) In this version, Holmes does battle with a Dracula-like fellow who may or may not be the real McCoy. There is a great deal of padding to fill out the story to feature length, and it is mostly silly. So, you ask, is there anything to recommend this? Well, there is the ailing Brett's ever-fascinating performance, which deviates from Doyle's vision of the detective hero toward something darker and more personal. Edward Hardwicke does his usual warm and capable work as Dr Watson. --Tom Keogh
