You Rang M'Lord? - Series 1-4: The Complete Box Set DVD

Advantages: Classic British comedy, hilarious
Disadvantages: lack of extras

...For my next trick, I would like to convince you all to go out and buy the Blackadder DVD box set. Christmas 2003, oh so many weeks ago now…. Unwrapping the smaller pressie from my mum, I discovered that she’d bought us the Complete Blackadder DVD! Slightly shocked, as I truly was not expecting the whole kaboodle, I proceeded to try my best to watch all 4 DVD’s back to back. I only managed to watch series 1, and half of series 2 in the first sitting, but that didn’t stop me! Next day, I sat through the rest, laughing til my sides hurt (and was very close to a nosebleed!) as I always do when watching this touch of genius. Originally the brainchild of Rowan Atkinson and Richard Curtis (later to team up on Mr Bean), Blackadder consisted of four series’ as well as three specials ( Blackadder: The Cavalier Years, Blackadder’s Christmas...

Advantages: Great Value For Money
Disadvantages: Doesn't include extra's like the Smeg Ups!

...This is a great DVD showcasing series 1 to 4 in a nicely presented box set, thats all twenty-four episodes including 'The End', 'Future Echoes', 'Balance Of Power', 'Waiting For God', 'Confidence And Paranoia', 'Me2'... If your looking for the added extra's and smeg up's of this popular TV comedy then unfortunately these aren't included. For the die hard Red Dwarf fans out there you might prefer to buy the separate series box sets with all the added extra's, but if all your looking for a nice compact DVD box set of the first 4 series (which are the best in my opinion) then its definately worth buying. At around the same price as buying two separate series DVD's its great value for money too.... Read review

Advantages: All ten seasons in one box, all a friends fan needs
Disadvantages: Comes on double sided disks and picture quality isn't great in the first season

...I'm presuming when I'm writing this review that nearly everyone that reads this would have seen at least one episode of friends. Friends saw the characters Rachel, Joey, Monica, Chandler, Phoebe and Ross become household names across the globe and everyone's best friends. There was never a sitcom like it before and there never will be again, Friends is simply unbeatable. Sorry if my love for the show is coming through in the review slightly, I'd hate to think I'd been biased towards it in anyway. Well due to my love for the series I do recognize it would be unfair going on and on about the series and it would serve more purpose to review the box set of series 1-10 (the complete collection). First off I would like to point out simply how good value for money this box set actually is. It would probably cost you around 130-150 pound... Read review
