World famous Michelin starred chef Heston Blumenthal faces his toughest challenge
yet, as he attempts to transform the culinary nightmares of major industrial forces
HESTON’S
MISSION IMPOSSIBLE
as seen
on
channel 7!
Chef Heston Blumenthal, holder of 3 Michelin stars, will take on British Airways, the NHS, Cineworld Cinemas and The Royal Navy and use his
maverick genius in an attempt to solve their culinary problems.
He experiences each organisation’s existing service firsthand, both as a customer and an employee, before the management outline their
concerns. They then set Heston challenges in the hope that he can dramatically transform their food production and even their business. As they
get drawn into Heston’s madcap world, with outrageous and bizarre experiments, the organisation’s staff will despair at his demands and
seemingly impossible ambitions.
Expect conflict, confrontation and constant entertainment. Faced with the added challenges of cooking without a kitchen, for thousands, for less
than £1 a meal, without trained staff, this really is a Mission Impossible!

SLEDGE
HAMMER!
FIRST
TIME ON
DVD!
Trust Him. He Knows What He’s Doing.
In the fall on 1986, an unsuspecting TV nation met a new kind of comedy hero who
made Rambo look like Pee Wee Herman. David Rasche starred as the trigger-happy
lawman whose hatred of criminal scum and yogurt eatin’ creeps was matched only
by his love of excessive force and a .44 Magnum. Over the next two seasons, this
hilariously deranged lampoon of DIRTY HARRY and plenty of other targets became
one of the most notorious series in television history and launched a rabid cult of fans
that grows to this day. This is SLEDGE HAMMER!
The complete first season of SLEDGE HAMMER! is now newly remastered (including
removal of the laugh track) and loaded with arsenal of exclusive extras that features
in the uncensored footage, all-new interviews with stars David Rasche, Harrison
Page and Anne-Marie Martin, audio commentaries and more, all given the ‘Hammer’
seal of approval by Series Creator & Executive Producer Alan Spencer.
SPECIAL FEATURES
• SLEDGE HAMMER : Go Ahead, Make Me Laugh! An all new 32-minute documentary featuring inteviews with Creator/Producer Alan Spencer, and Actors David Rache, Anne-Marie Martin and Harrison Page.

Follow the daily saga of the Whiskers, a 12-inch tall family that’s a lot like yours.
Meet the Whiskers, a remarkable family of Meerkats living on the edge of Africa’s Kalahari Desert that share all
the love, squabbling, self-sacrifice and rivalry found in any family home. From family quarrels to love affairs to
backstabbing worthy of a Shakespearean tale, these fuzzy, twelve inch stars pack a huge dramatic punch.
SALES & MARKETING
Narrated by Bill Nighy (Love Actually, Pirates of the Caribbean 2&3)
MEERKAT MANOR BEST OF SERIES 1
As seen on Channel 10 & Animal Planet
The Meerkat Manor series has been nomintated for three primetime Emmys for
Outstanding Cinematography and Picture Editing & in 2009 it was nominated for
Favourite International Programme at the ASTRA awards
Meerkat Manor has been well received by viewers and critics alike.
In October 2007, it was Animal Planet’s top series, with an audience
of more than four million in the United States alone
Like the meerkats, Manor is an odd beast. The crew is forbidden to intervene,
and the producers don’t sugarcoat the animals’ less cuddly habits (infidelity,
abandonment of young, occasional cannibalism). But the meerkats are named
and given human traits (‘courageous,’ ‘caring,’ ‘bullying’), and their antics and
tragedies take place over a sound track. Manor is both brutal and melodramatic
and thus more devastating
than most documentary or scripted drama. —James Poniewozik,

heroin striking too close to home; Helen, a woman who embarks
on a daring survival strategy after her husband’s arrest; and
Fazal, a Pakistani peasant who works for a menacing drug lord. Starring Bill Paterson (Little Dorrit, Smiley’s People), Lindsay
Duncan (Rome, Under the Tuscan Sun), and Julia Ormond

ELTON JOHN - SOMEONE LIKE ME
He was 23 before he became a star. Shy chubby and bespectacled, he was already losing his hair. Hardly a rock icon. In
the course of a year he had adopted an outrageous stage persona and became a rock sensation. With over 200 million
albums sold, including seven consecutive chart toppers, Sir Elton John is one of the most successful recording artists
of all time.The journey from star to legend wasn’t an easy one. Depression, bulimia, drug and alcohol addiction, failed
relationships and explosive temper tantrums have often threatened to overwhelm him but somehow he has endured.So
who is the real Elton John? How did he go from the 14 year old playing Jim Reeves songs in a Pinner pub to perhaps
the performance of his life at the funeral of close friend Diana, Princess of WalesThis authoritative new documentary
follows Elton’s rocky road from troubled child and
classical music student through to unpredictable drama

MADONNA - WILD ANGEL
Madonna is one of the most successful female recording artists of all time. Her recent tour grossed nearly $200m - a
record for a female artist. How did she get from small time dancer to international icon and slavishly imitated role
model? Who helped her along the way? Who did she use and who used her? Were the storms of outrage over her
sexuality and attacks on the church reactions to her heartfelt beliefs or carefully contrived publicity stunts? Using
interviews from those who have closely followed her career on both sides of the Atlantic and a mass of footage of the
star herself we tell unauthorized story of this wild angel who turned herself into the Queen of Pop.

BOB DYLAN - DYLAN SPEAKS
On December 3, 1965, Bob Dylan arrived in San Francisco a day ahead of a 3-night stand of performances in Berkeley
and San Francisco to answer queries from reporters for a televised press conference. Just months after going electric
at Newport, Dylan arrives in San Francisco appearing relaxed. Throughout this glimpse into the mind of a master, we
see a man who is funny, standofish, serious and self-deprecating while answering questions from the likes of Ralph
Gleason, Allen Ginsberg and Bill Graham. Providing insight from everything from his songwriting to the crowd reaction
at the Newport Folk Festival, Dylan’s 1965 press conference is a rare look into the mind of the 24 year old genius.
