First up is a chance to win Trevor`s World of Sport on DVD which includes all seven episodes of the BBC sitcom written and directed by Andy Hamilton. The series follows Trevor (Neil Pearson), a sports agent trying to survive in the increasingly ruthless environment of his profession. As a man who believes in the traditional values of honesty and hard work, Trevor is something of an exception in his field. For evidence of this he need look no further than his partner at TS sports, Sammy (Paul Reynolds), a lascivious opportunist always on the look out for a deal. Estranged from his wife Meryl (Claire Skinner) and seemingly under siege from all sides as his business skills come under scrutiny, will Trevor manage to keep his head above water?

CONGRATULATIONS TO...Wednesday 23rd January 2013 Andris Lastovskis, Neil Ogden and Rob Cox who were all drawn at random from the entries received for our recent The Titfield Thunderbolt competition. Thanks for all the entries and to Studio Canal for their continued support. WIN THE TITFIELD THUNDERBOLT COURTESY OF STUDIO CANALSunday 6th January 2013 To celebrate the 60th Anniversary, Studio Canal are releasing The Titfield Thunderbolt on DVD and Blu-ray on 14 January 2013, and have given us 3 copies of the DVD to give away.
The film is a wonderful tale of how a community comes together when the British Railways Service announce the closure of the line linking rural Titfield to Mallingford, which they rely on to commute to work and transport their produce to market. They make a bid to run it themselves, backed by massively wealthy local Valentine (Stanley Holloway), who is instantly attracted to the idea when told that there is a complete lack of alcohol licensing hours on trains! However, this decision puts them into direct competition with the local bus company, which leads to a whole array of comically genius anarchy, madness and cunning sabotage. The film has been digitally restored by Pinewood Studios, who spent over 100 hours removing dirt, scratches, hisses and pops from the picture and soundtrack. You can read my full review of the fantastic Blu-ray release here.
