FREE DVDs

Advantages: Free trial, large choice, post included,new realeases
Disadvantages: see review

...I like movies and I like freebies, so when you get offered both in one swoop you?re bound to accept! I used my two week free trial with this company and remained with them for a couple of monthsbefore moving on to try many other companies free trials (and winning a new DVD player on Tesco DVD rental site on their free trial offer). I then had an email from DVDs 365 asking me to go back, and offering me a free DVD if I did so. I had just left Tesco (with my new DVD player) so I chose to go back with them. ∆◊◊ THE SERVICE THEY OFFER ∆◊◊ Basically it?s like going to a video shop and hiring films on DVD, except you don?t pay for each film you chose ? rather a monthly fee for which you can watch as many movies as you can fit in, for us this is usually around 8 a month (2 a week usually weekends...

Oh frot - Grant without Naylor

Advantages: A bit like Red Dwarf
Disadvantages: Not enough like Red Dwarf

...Rob Grant is half of the comedy writing partnership that created the cult comedy, Red Dwarf (the other half being Doug Naylor). Grant without Naylor is like any good comedy partnership - they are both good in on their own, but better together. Red Dwarf has lost it’s edge since Rob Grant left. Which was why I bought this book. Hmm. I forgot that Rob Grant was responsible for the Sky One ‘comedy’ The Strangerers. Mysteriously popular, I found The Strangerers incomprehensible and ridiculous. Grant without Naylor doesn’t so much verge on silliness as wallow in it. He has the ideas, the wit, the classic put-downs, but something is missing. He comes across as an eternal student, this book has the feel of a rag-mag. I found it hard to get into and didn’t warm to his characters, but I will probably read it...

Bob's Bugle

Advantages: see review
Disadvantages: see review

...This is a story taken from one of the television episodes of the ever-popular Bob the Builder. For those of you not familiar with Bob, he is a very popular cartoon builder who works in a place called Bobsville with his partner, Wendy, and a selection of talking machines. The book begins with Bob making himself a bugle out of an old pipe which he finds whilst fixing a broken central heating system. He plans to practise playing as much as he can so that he can join a band. Bob?s playing is terrible, but no one wants to hurt his feelings by telling him so. He keeps the poor machines awake all night as he practises. Eventually the team resort to hiding the bugle so that they can have some peace, but disaster strikes when Roley rolls over the bugle by mistake and flattens it! Can Bob fix it? You?ll have to read the book to find out...

Review of Bob's Bugle - Penguin Character Books

Bob and The Gang!

Advantages: nice little set
Disadvantages: not stories

...Bob The Builder Pocket Library Jack is now 10 months old and completely loves books! I do think however that I like Bob The Builder far more than he does although when I bought these books home with me after an afternoon of shopping he was pretty pleased! They were on offer in Woolworth's for £2.99p and for that money what you are getting is a set of six books each one about a different characte4r from the Bob the Builder Television programme shown on CBeebies. Bob the Builder has been around for a fair few years now and a show that I believe is set to continue for a long time. Paying the price I did I felt was pretty reasonable as the RRP is £3.99p, so £1 off. The six books are housed within a hard sleeve type cover, which keeps them tidy and sits nicely on Jacks bookshelf. The books are all board books making the pages...

Review of Bob the Builder Pocket Library - Egmont Publishing

Bob's Back!

Advantages: Will keep children entertained
Disadvantages: None

...My son really loves Bob the Builder, so today we decided to watch 'Speedy Skip'. The DVD comes in a normal yellow plastic DVD case. The cover has the title on and a picture of Bob, JJ and skip. Upon opening the case, the disc is on the right hand side. It is red with the title on and has a picture of skip on. The disc also has pictures of tools in the background coloured orange. On the left side of the case is a small booklet which explains how to use the DVD and hints on careful handling of the disc. The DVD is produced by Hit Entertainment and runs for sixty eight minutes. The rating of this is U, which means it is suitable for everyone, and it was made in 2003. When I bought this for my son I paid £7.99 for it, although I'm sure if you look around now, you may pick it up cheaper. The DVD has five episodes on it...

Review of Bob The Builder - Speedy Skip (DVD)

Bob. Yup, Just Bob

Advantages: Lots of big tunes
Disadvantages: Very long

...Hosted by Mick Boogie, ?Hi! My Name Is B.o.B? came as a Spring 2008 mixtape from the Decatur, Georgia-born rapper and singer B.o.B (who now goes by the name Bobby Ray and is signed to T.I.?s Grand Hustle Records label). It was one of his first and was a release that seemed to get his name out amongst the undergrounders as a result of its hype (and for following up his ?Cloud 9? mixtape in 2007 after he released ?Haterz Everywhere? as his debut single. 1. ?Intro? 2. ?What The F? The opening track to the release is a heavy one as you see that he works off the back of some classic West Coast rap material from Eazy-E (which was dragged over from the intro) you see that he gives the listeners an understanding of what exactly he has come to do and how he plans to take over with his material. It is a hardcore tune and by using the sample...

Surprising Picture Quality - Panasonic DVD-S54

Advantages: Incredible picture quality when compared to my old non-upscaling player with a scart lead
Disadvantages: Sometimes disc drive can be really noisy when DVD's initially load.

...At first I wasn't convinced by up-scaling DVD player technology but was persuaded after reading an article in "What Hi-Fi? Sound and Vision" magazine. Unable to afford a Blu-Ray player my sister and I bought the Panasonic DVD-S54 to match our parents brand new Panasonic TX-32LZD80 LCD television as their Christmas 2008 present. Admittedly it was a slightly selfish purchase as we both live at home and wanted to watch DVDs on the big new TV ourselves! We bought the player from the electrical retailer Comet for about £100 just before Christmas so there were no discounts applied. On Christmas day when opened we found a relatively small box tightly packed with the player in polystyrene packaging. All the components such as cables, remote and manuals were well presented in their own protective plastic bags, to keep them protected. The player...

Skip is a lime green vehicle with a yellow skip attached to the back. The toy measures Height: 11cm Length: 17cm . Skip is suitable for a 3 year old and over to play with and will be popular amongst Bob the builder fans up to 6 or 7 years old . You should be able to buy this toy for about £6. Amazon is selling it for £5.89. http://www.duncanstoychest.co.uk is selling for £7.99. The front of the vehicle like other friction bob the builder toys has googly eyes which jiggle when Skip is zooming along the floor.
