  Adventure is their call crab is their prey and a one hundred million dollar plunder is their reward! In the far northern reaches of the planet a rare breed of extreme fishermen hunt the Bering Sea. Adventure is their call crab is their prey and a one hundred million dollar plunder is their reward. Series 7 of Deadliest Catch opens with footage of the crews holding an informal memorial for Captain Phil Harris before the start of the King crab season. In this season the Kodiak the Time Bandit the Northwestern the Wizard and the Cornelia Marie (now under Captain Derrick Ray) are joined by two new boats: the Seabrooke (Captain Scott Campbell Jr.) and the Ramblin' Rose (Captain Elliot Neese). Then in Series 8 two skippers square off in a high stakes rivalry and the mysterious collapse of a deckhand summons a daring rescue at sea as an already vicious king crab season gets underway. A depleted fishery triggers restrictions that force captains to take huge gambles on remote and volatile fishing grounds to the far north while a violent arctic hurricane forecasters call 'The Storm of the Century' descends on the Bering Sea. Those brave enough to stay behind and fish the risky waters are subject to some of the best crab fishing the region has ever known.

• Bones - Season 8 | Blu Ray | (30/09/2013) from £35.08   |  Saving you £14.91 (29.80%)   |  RRP £49.99

  Bones returns for a dramatic 8th season with more twists and turns than before! Bones is inspired by real-life forensic anthropologist and novelist Kathy Reichs. Dr. Temperance Brennan (Emily Deschanel) is a highly skilled forensic anthropologist who works at the Jeffersonian Institute in Washington, D.C., and writes novels on the side. When the standard methods of identifying a body are useless (when the remains are so badly decomposed, burned or destroyed), law enforcement calls on Brennan for her uncanny ability to read clues left behind in the victim's bones. While most people can't handle Brennan's intelligence, her drive for the truth or the way she flings herself headlong into every investigation, Special agent Seeley Booth (David Boreanaz) of the FBI's Homicide Investigations Unit is an exception. A former Army sniper, Booth mistrusts science and scientists - the squints, as he calls them - who pore over the physical evidence of a crime. But even he cannot deny that the combination of his people-smarts and Brennan's scientific acumen makes them a formidable duo. Season Eight will begin with Brennan on the run with her father Max (guest star Ryan O'Neal) as a fugitive both from the law and serial killer Pelant, while Booth is restricted to administrative duties at the FBI. In addition, Sweets has been removed from the case, as has Federal Prosecuting Attorney Caroline Julian (guest star Patricia Belcher). What's more, due to Pelant's technical savvy, Booth and Brennan will communicate with each other in only the most rudimentary ways, not only to try to prove Brennan's innocence but - with the help of Cam, Hodgins, and Angela - to place the blame where it belongs, on the murderous Pelant.

So will they step up settle their differences and co-captain the Marie together or will salty water prove thicker than blood? Season 9 also sees two new skippers join the veteran fleet and battle lines are immediately drawn. Aging warriors Captain Sig Hansen on the Northwestern the Hillstrand brothers on the Time Bandit Skipper Bill on the Kodiak and Captain Keith Colburn of the Wizard find their crab grounds invaded by 36- year-old Scott Campbell - aka 'Junior' - who helms the fast powerful Seabrooke and 28-year-old rookie Elliot Neese who runs a rusting 'floating frat-house' called the Ramblin' Rose. These cocky young skippers are determined to stake their claim to the Bering Sea crab bounty but soon learn that 'old age and treachery' is a force to be reckoned with... So strap on those sea legs and head out into the 50-foot waves in search of the Deadliest Catch.

• Squirm | Blu Ray | (23/09/2013) from £20.23   |  Saving you £-0.24 (N/A%)   |  RRP £19.99

  One of the most original and entertaining of the revenge-of-nature films that characterised mid-1970s American horror Squirm begins with a pylon being downed by a thunderstorm sending millions of volts into the wet conductive mud which naturally gives hundreds of thousands of its wriggly inhabitants an insatiable hunger for human flesh. And since the accident has also inconveniently cut off the electricity to Fly Creek Georgia its population could hardly be more vulnerable when the sun goes down. Houses can be barricaded against most intruders but what happens when they're small enough to get into the water supply? Writer-director Jeff Lieberman (who also made the cult classics Blue Sunshine and Just Before Dawn) achieves a near-perfect blend of knowing wit and good old-fashioned scares with make-up genius Rick Baker (An American Werewolf in London) on hand for some of the memorably disgusting special effects. Special Features: High Definition Blu-ray (1080p) and Standard Definition DVD uncut presentation available in the UK for the first time!
