This is a complete list of my DVDs & Blu-rays, with links to posts where I mention or review them. I’ve also included product links, usually to the exact editions I own, or occasionally to the nearest match I can find. And for simplicity, many of the links point to box sets, even if I bought each series or film individually (but I will always state if I did buy a box set). None of the links are sponsored or affiliated, I’m not paid for them.
You’re welcome to recommend other things I might like, on DVD, Blu-ray, TV, online, etc. There’s no need to suggest items directly connected to the titles below (or on my TV & Movie pages), as I already know about related spin-offs, sequels, DVDs, Blu-ray upgrades, soundtracks, online streams, etc. If I haven’t listed those things, it’s either because I’ve not got around to them yet, or I’m not interested, or they’re unavailable. But beyond that, these lists will give you a good sense of my general tastes, so based on that I’m happy to consider other shows or films you think I might enjoy. If you have lots in mind, don’t send a huge list, just start with the best few.

Recorded DVDs
The following DVDs – which are not as high quality as professional discs but are good enough for my purposes – were created from:
- Freeview TV & Radio – Produced on old JVC & Sony hard drive recorders. I am no longer able to record from TV and radio in this way.
- VHS Tapes – Dubbed on to DVD using my old JVC recorder.
- Internet Downloads – Created on my computer, but only occasionally, and only if I can’t buy proper DVDs.

Future Releases
I regularly monitor Amazon, social media, online newsletters, etc, so I’m always up to date with any upcoming releases I might want to buy. Current titles I’m considering include:
- 17/05/2021 – Saw: Legacy Collection (Blu-ray) – The first 8 films, timed to coincide with the delayed theatrical release of the 9th film, Spiral, on 14 May.
- 07/06/2021 – Micky Flanagan: Peeping Behind The Curtain (DVD) – Shown on Sky One last year, I might get it to go with his stand-up DVDs.
- 14/06/2021 – Dad’s Army: The Movie (1971) (50th Anniversary Edition) (Blu-ray) – I already have it on DVD, but I’ll get the upgrade as it’s a special edition with a few extra features.
- 09/07/2021 – The Rolling Stones: A Bigger Bang – Live On Copacabana Beach (Blu-ray) – The full show re-edited, remixed & remastered, featuring tracks that were cut when it was included in the old Biggest Bang DVD set, plus an additional show from Salt Lake city.
- 23/08/2021 – Maigret [Deluxe Limited Edition] (Blu-ray) – The complete Rupert Davies series from the 1960s, regarded as the best of the Maigret adaptations by author Georges Simenon & fans of the stories. This is the first time it’s ever been released, so I’ve pre-ordered it for Mum as she really wants it. She has the Michael Gambon series on DVD already, which she likes too.
