I bought this DVD for my young son when he was two years old, with a degree of nostalgia in mind. I would not have anticipated quite what a hit it has been. The gentle, moral tales have captivated him to an amazing degree. We must have been watching these for a year now and he doesn't tire of them at all. The animation of the pictures is very simple but effective, the music is just wonderful. Unlike some other DVDs I've bought (Trumpton, Clangers) this one has lasted the test of time wonderfully - my only complaint is that the new Gladiator tale jars slightly image wise and leaves utterly unexplained how Mr Benn is supposed to know Basher in the first place!!

I recall seeing these two films many years ago during their initial release, and being a Doctor Who fan, welcomed them in this 2 disc box set.

They are rather dated now, with cheap looking sets, exaggerated colour, and camp acting. But they are also a fond look back at the early years of Doctor Who, which by the time these films had been released the series had been broadcast by BBC Television since November 1963.

The first story based on the original transmission which was shown between December 1963 and February 1964 remains to this day one of the all time classic Doctor Who. The film version however, seems a rather rushed affair covering the basic storyline when the Doctor lands on the planet Skaro and finds an abandoned ... Read More:

I don't understand why this film gets unfavourable reviews on Amazon. I didn't like it when I first saw it on TV in the seventies (I missed it at the cinema being under-age) but it has become one of my favourite films since. It has the greatest of John Barry's great film scores, superb black and white photography, Rita Tushingham at her best, wonderful shots of mod London, and it is very wittily filmed. It is based on a theatre play which has transferred to the screen perfectly and it is inspired by the French New Wave. It is witty and trendy 60s mod art, and so it must be good.

Anyone who likes iron men fighting in wooden ships against the French, with the roar of cannon and splinters flying everywhere, will enjoy the last half of Damn the Defiant!. Whether you enjoy the first half depends on how well you appreciate the almost psychopathic cruelty and condescension of First Lieutenant Scott-Padget (Dirk Bogarde).

It's 1797, Napoleon threatens Britain, and only the Royal Navy ensures Britain's freedom. Captain Crawford (Alec Guinness) takes command of H.M.S. Defiant, a single-gun-deck frigate. Also joining the ship is Scott-Padget, an officer with friends in high places, a talent for seamanship, and a taste for flogging. While Crawford is determined to keep an open mind about his first lieutenant, it becomes quickly apparent that ... Read More:

This is quite an oddity. Yes, the print is very difficult to watch as much of it is so dark. I have to admit to liking any film set in a theatre and that is what attracted me to it. I think the location for some of the filming is the end of Cromer Pier. If you look at the film at 1hr.05mins that is not Brighton as implied in the booklet.
The cast includes many familiar faces most notably Ray Brooks, Jenny Hanley, Robin Askwith and Patrick Barr. I enjoyed the story but agree it is slow moving.

The jauntiness of several of Irving Berlin's songs in this film is counteracted by the romance of 'Let's Face the Music and Dance.' Although Torville and Dean were good in this music, nobody does it like Fred and Ginger. They also perform the brilliant tap routine 'I'm Putting all my Eggs in one Basket', which features Astaire playing the piano. Fred does two numbers on board a naval ship, 'We Saw the Sea' and 'I'd Rather Lead a Band', both of them performed to perfection. There's a cute monkey and the decision to not let the boy get the girl at the end of the plot makes a novel contrast to so many of the earlier Astaire-Rogers outings. Innovative.
