Press Gang (Complete Series Box Set) [DVD]
6.  Press Gang (Complete Series Box Set) [DVD] DVD ~ Julia Sawalha

George And The Dragon [DVD]

10.  The 39 Steps [1978] [DVD] DVD ~ Powell Robert

Sherlock Holmes and the Railway Maniac
15.  Sherlock Holmes and the Railway Maniac by Barrie Roberts

Basil Brush - Sports Spectacular [DVD]
18.  Basil Brush - Sports Spectacular [DVD] DVD ~ Basil Brush
The list author says:
  "Don't think of it as a childrens show; think of it as a skewed sitcom with one character who happens to be a fox.  A few good gags here - and look at the price!  Add it to your basket!"

The Pyrates
20.  The Pyrates by George MacDonald Fraser
The list author says:
  "A genuinely funny swashbuckling novel.  The author has used every cliche imaginable to send up every Hollywood pirate movie, & it works.  Lively, light-hearted, and a decent sized read."

Judge Dredd Vs. Aliens: Incubus
21.  Judge Dredd Vs. Aliens: Incubus by John Wagner

The Story of Commodore: A Company on the Edge
22.  The Story of Commodore: A Company on the Edge by Brian Bagnall
The list author says:
  "Computer history is fiercely revisionist, with Apple, IBM, & Microsoft dominating all the mainstream reference books.  Commodore were true pioneers and deserved a better-lasting success."

Life and Times of Scrooge McDuck
23.  Life and Times of Scrooge McDuck by Don Rosa
The list author says:
  "I read comics as a child, & it was one of the joys of my childhood.  Comics are too expensive for kids to buy nowadays.  Get this as a little treat for them, then read it yourself!"

The Life and Times of Scrooge McDuck Companion
24.  The Life and Times of Scrooge McDuck Companion by Don Rosa
The list author says:
  "Partner to the above. This is the kind of innocent fun a comic should be; a lot of comics these days reflect the mean-spirited self-centred world we live in.  Put some different fuel into your kids!"
