DVD Description
One of the most amazing and compelling adventure stories of all time, Ernest Shackleton's 1915 expedition to the previously unexplored, forbidding land of Antarctica has been a subject of great public fascination for decades. With 27 crew members, the intrepid man became trapped in the icey land after his ship, the Endurance, sank into the Weddell Sea. Oscar-winning actor Kenneth Branagh plays the complicated and fearless explorer. The dramatic story is based on excerpts from Shackleton's own diaries, as well as accounts from some of his crew members.

Advantages: One of the best, most bizarre comedies on TV Disadvantages: Features are disappointing
..., Michael) and a semi-talking gorilla called Bollo; and run by the downright bonkers Bob Fossil (played by Rich Fulcher). Each of the eight episodes of this first series contains a different wacky adventure that they find themselves on, and to add to all this madness, each episode also has a musical interlude! So come with us now on a journey through time and space, to the world of the Mighty Boosh…(if you're wondering, apparently it's named after Noel Fielding's hairstyle!)
The first episode on this two disc DVD is KILLEROO, which at first I didn't really like, but has some hilarious moments. Howard Moon is blackmailed into having a boxing match with a Kangaroo (unless he wants naked pictures of his deformed body spread around the zoo), and so it is up to Vince to train him up. The thing that I find funniest about The Mighty Boosh...
