A Little Bit Of Lippy (DVD)
|
|
A Little Bit of Lippy is a fruity, cross-dressing comedy set in the north of England. Marian (Alison Swann) and Rick (Danny Cunningham) are a working-class couple whose marriage has gone stale. In search of some sexual oomph, Marian surprises Rick one night in her scanties. Problem is, he's gotten to the make-up box before her. Directed by Chris Bernard, A Little Bit of Lippy is a terrific, stylish blend of surreal cinematography and absurdist Mike Leigh-style observation.

All The King's Men (DVD)
|
|
Starring: David Jason, Maggie Smith, William Ash, Sonya Walger, Stuart Bunce. Directed by: Julian Jarrold An all-star cast portrays this most poignant and mysterious event of the First World War - the disappearance in action of the Sandringham Company at Gallipoli in 1915. Commanded by the Estate Manager, Captain Frank Beck (David Jason), they were just ordinary men - servants, grooms and gardeners - drawn from the staff of the King's private residence. They left an idyllic rural existence for the fatally ill-prepared campaign and their deaths brought the horrors of the First World War to the heart of the establishment - and to the Royal Family itself. After the war a Special Envoy was sent at the behest of Queen Alexandra (Maggie Smith) to discover what fate had befallen the...

Barbarians Vs All Blacks: 1973 (DVD)
|
|
This DVD brings you the full match between the Barbarians and the All Blacks, regarded by many as the finest match ever televised. This was the final match of the All Blacks' tour, which had seen them record victories over Wales, Scotland and England; only a drawn game against Ireland had prevented them from achieving a Grand Slam. The Barbarians' side included some of the truly great players of the era, men such as Duckham, Gibson, JPR Williams, Bennett, Edwards, McBride and Carmichael. The team displayed an admirable commitment to that brand of open, attacking rugby which has come to be associated with Barbarian sides over the years - the tone of the whole match being set by Gareth Edwards' try in the third minute, which must rank as one of the best ever. This, together...
