I thought Zavvi had gone into administration and no longer existed.

A sign saying "We've been Woolworthed" hangs outside their shops. :teddyr:
                                             

If God exists, why did he make me an atheist? Thats His first mistake.

I got that about a year ago before they seemed to go into the red.

In no particular order:

* SOPRANOS (all seasons)
* SEINFELD (all seasons)
* MAN FROM U.N.C.L.E (all seasons)
* PLANET OF THE APES
* VAL LEWTON COLLECTION
* There is a collection of Ray Dennis Steckler movies, but I can't remember the name of the boxed set.
* BARE BOX (contains DEADLY WEAPONS, DOUBLE AGENT 73, DIARY OF A NUDIST, THE NAKED VENUS, and BLAZE STARR GOES NUDIST)
* THREE STOOGES COLLECTION (these are the boxed sets that go in chronological order . . . currently, 4 volumes are available)
* MONTY PYTHON'S 16 TON MEGASET
* THE PRISONER (all seasons)
* THE AVENGERS (Diana Rigg seasons ar the only essential ones)
* LITTLE RASCALS - THE COMPLETE COLLECTION (a bit misleading, because it is NOT the complete collection - - just the episodes Hal Roach was personally involved in - - later episodes are not included)
* KUNG FU (all seasons)

Ashes to Ashes

It's a cop drama, sci-fi, fish-out-of-water, fantasy show. Set in 1981.

Good choice. I may pick that up if I see it cheap.
