Fancy a walk?

Advantages: Amazing scenery, facinating
Disadvantages: Is there any?

Himalaya - Michael Palin I am reviewing this 3 disc set on DVD, obviously, otherwise it wouldn't be a disc set. There are some extras on this DVD, they are: - Exclusive Pre-Trip Introduction on all three discs Extended Scenes Scene selection, There is over 90 minutes of Bonus Footage on this DVD It is rated 12, as there is moderate sexual detail. Running time approx 352 minutes. Also with subtitles, in English. Series producer & Director ...
...a fantastic view of the Himalaya mountains. Well as you can guess from the title it is about the journey of one man, Michael Palin, who at his age is remarkably fit, and needed to be to go on this amazing journey. Rather than list all the separate titles of each scene that are on the DVD, I will try to explain what is so amazing about this DVD. After watching this for the third time, I am still amazed at the sheer will power of Michael Palin, ...

* Get Fit With Claire *

Advantages: Fun
Disadvantages: Not many!

I used to be a HUGE Steps fan in my younger days! I was mad about them! I had all their CDs , Videos , Books , T Shirts , Scarfs , Posters , Mugs .... if it had a Steps logo on it , I had it. So as you can image I was pretty gutted when they split up. Fast forward seven years and Claire Richards , ex member of Steps , is back on the scene with a fitness DVD which helped her drop five dress sizes! I remember, it was Christmas last year, when the DVD ...
...it was too expensive. I can't remember exactly how much it was at the time , although I think it might have been aroung £17 which I thought was far too much to pay for a fitness DVD. So I decided I would wait. I waited so long that I forgot about the DVD , until recently. I was browsing through the DVD pages on Amazon when I came across the DVD selling for £12.98 ; still quite expensive considering that the DVD is now a year old. However I still ...

Review of 5 Step Fat Attack With Claire Richards From Steps (DVD)

Does Jeremy Kyle really access all areas of quality?

Advantages: Gives an insider view of the popular TV show.
Disadvantages: Bit expensive for what it is. Not a lot more than you would get in a standard episode.

The Jeremy Kyle has established itself as one of the staples of daytime TV today. Since 2005 it has covered interesting and often controversial issues such as paternity disputes (most common), infidelity, feuding neighbours and drug and alcohol addicts. However there are some uplifting issues that they deal with, such as family reunions and rejuvenating torn-down estates where crime and depravity are rife. The most well-konwn feature of the show ...
...at the studio and film Jeremy himself being pampered ready for the recording. The bulk of the 83 minutes of the DVD however I regret to say is not much more than an ordinary episode (though it was made especially for the DVD and has such never been broadcast on TV). There are 2 DNA tests and one lie detector test (I shan't give away the results). When watching this I did feel that the DVD wasn't perhaps worth the £12.71 I paid for it (which to be ...

If you could package arrogance!

Advantages: Lucy, price
Disadvantages: Fitz, routine, effect

...knew of is the lovely Lucy Benjamin. She's famous for her role as Lisa Mitchell in EastEnders, and was the winner of Celebrity X Factor a few years back. It was great to see her in the Jungle - she'd been away from our screens for too long. I wasn't aware that Lisa had released a fitness DVD, so when I made this discovery I was thrilled. I purchased it straight away, costing me just £2.95 from eBay. It is an extremely cheap DVD, and will cost you ...
...promising, a lovely picture of Lucy on the front, dressed in pink with her flat stomach on show, a Cheshire cat grin from ear to ear. Titled 'Dancercise', I had a feeling this was not going to be like my usual beloved cardio aerobic DVDs, and was keen to find out just what I was up against. The DVD itself brings you up three options, the second being 'workout selector' which allows you to choose the part of the work out you want to do. Though seeing ...

Review of Lucy Benjamin's Dancercise (DVD)

2 prim ladies + scruffs!

Advantages: useful tips
Disadvantages: presenters so annoying!

...wondering who Kim Woodburn is, how is she a celebrity? Well she became 'famous' from her appearance alongside Aggie MacKenzie in the TV show 'How Clean Is Your House'. The concept of the show is really very simple- Kim and Aggie help people to clean up their houses. It sounds quite dull actually, why would you actually want to watch this? Well the truth is you just can't help yourself! Is one of those compulsive viewings like Come Dine With Me and ...
...and they quiz them about how the house has become to the state it has and what is happening in their lives which means that they can't even ever run a duster around the house. They then set to work! They take swabs to check for bacteria and then give cleaning tips. The cleaning tips can be really simple although sometimes when I watch this I start to think well I've never put white vinegar inside my washing machine, am I just as bad as this person?! ...
