...Product
The DVD case is blue with a picture of a tractor in a cog wheel, a hard hat, a spirit level and a road sign with a man digging on it. I bought this for a two year old I look after (Joe) who loves diggers, dumpers, tractors and excavators. The DVD is in three parts, each part is roughly 35 minutes long:
Road Construction Ahead
House Construction Ahead
Farm Country Ahead
Each part can be played separately through scene selections.
What's on the DVD
Come on everybody grab your hard hats and join us for 110 minutes of reality based live action, rock blasting, excavating, bull dozing, cement pouring, house building, food growing, mind blowing fun.
Road Construction Ahead
This DVD starts with two small boys playing with their dump trucks in the muck ( Joe loves this bit as it is also his favourite thing to do with his diggers...

Advantages: Cigarette Burns is astounding Disadvantages: The second feature is less appaling and the disc has numerous faults.

Dreams In The Witch House Audio commentary from director Stuart Gordon with actor Ezra Godden and DVD producer Perry Martin - Fairly standard commentary, a few laughs in places but nothing to write home about. Stuart Gordon creates a far different image than the one I had of him.

...in the red house and run the local shop and café. Penny wears blue and is in a wheel chair and Suzie wears red (remember Effie from take the high road).
This DVD is just over an hour long and includes a pantomime filmed in front of a live audience and three other normal episodes of Balamory.
The DVD starts with PC Plum telling us all what's coming up in the DVD; it shows you him decorating a Christmas tree and how he is organising the Balamory panto. (This section you can fast forward to the main menu if you little ones are impatience like mines!)
On the Main Menu Screen you have the option to

The Extras are great in this DVD sometimes my son just wants to play with the extras rather than watching the DVD. The extras include:

DVD Description
A man (Patrick Swayze) famous for being the best bouncer around is hired to help clean up a rowdy Missouri roadhouse called the Double Deuce. The Double Deuce has another problem besides the rowdy patrons, however, as the town's kingpin and his henchmen eliminate anyone who gets in their way.
...this film certainly did have quite a few dodgy things in it. i mean, have you ever heard of a tin man, a talking lion and a moving scarecrow? not to mention a road made out of yellow bricks and a funny wizard who lives in a city made out of emeralds. and if people are going to drop houses on witches, how come my biology teacher gets away with it?!? this film did have quite a good story line and realy stretched the imagination to the full. well, you have to have a good one to watch this film!...

...This dysfunctional family is off to a spend Christmas at grandma's house. With the man of the house Frank, opting to take the scenic route. As he travels through the woods and unfamiliar roads, nerves begin to fray. After the constant bickering from the back seat, between his son, daughter and her fiancé, tiredness begins to set in. Frank briefly falls asleep at the wheel, before waking suddenly after a near collision with another vehicle. The family, all slightly shaken by the close call, are wide awake moaning and bickering along the road until things become not as they seem!
They pick up a what appears to be a lost woman in white at the side of the road. The woman just sits in the backseat, holding her child, very quiet. When Frank pulls over at a cabin to see if there is anyone who can help, the terror then begins!
