Review Cromwell/Marston Moor / Cromwell Productions Ltd.:This unique set provides an atmospheric and informative record of an extraordinary period in British history. CROMWELL Oliver Cromwell was born in relative obscurity in Huntingdon, Cambridgeshire, but he was to rise to prominence as one of the greatest Generals and Statesmen that this country has ever produced. He was a leading light in the Great Revolution and Civil War which saw the overthrow of the British monarchy. Cromwell was victorious in almost every battle in England, Scotland and Ireland and throughout the civil wars. After the wars, during a decade of turbulent political upheaval, he presided over the Commonwealth, and the Protectorate and although he had refused the Crown, by the end of his life he was effectively ruling Britain as King in all but name. The story of Oliver Cromwell is inextricably linked to the social, religious, political and military upheavals which racked the British Isles in the mid Seventeenth Century. MARSTON MOOR The Battle of Marston Moor on July 2nd 1644 was one of the most important of the entire English Civil War. It was there that a force of some 27,000 Parliamentarian and Scottish troops routed an army of almost 18,000 Royalists. Crucially the Royalist stronghold of York was lost and King Charles' cause in the north fell into virtual collapse. It was a blow from which the King never recovered. [+]
Featuring spectacular battle reconstruction footage and dramatised eye-witness accounts 'Marston Moor' tells the powerful story of one of English history's great military engagements. The programme also includes many period paintings and engravings and analysis by battle experts.

Review The Very Best of the Mary Tyler Moore Show [7 VHS Boxed Set] / Mtm Video:Imagine sitting before your TV circa 1970, watching the premiere episode of The Mary Tyler Moore Show. The premise, while informed by the feminist ethos of the day (hardly of the bra-burning variety, however), is only mildly interesting: woman reluctantly abandons her hopes for hometown marital bliss to relocate to the metropolis of Minneapolis. Initially, though, Mary is a bit too diffident; her boozehound boss, Lou Grant (Ed Asner), is too broadly drawn. There are some great lines ("You've got spunk," Lou tells Mary in their first meeting. "I hate spunk!"). The cast, which includes Cloris Leachman, Valerie Harper, Ted Knight, and Gavin MacLeod, shows promise. But, you may have thought at the time, give it a season and it'll be history. It became history, all right. The Mary Tyler Moore Show developed a richness with each new episode, eventually proving to be one of the most influential sitcoms in TV annals. This seven-video boxed set includes two half-hour episodes from each of the program's seven seasons, including the arguably most talked about episode, "Chuckles Bites the Dust. [+]
" And check out "Lou Dates Mary" from the final 1976-77 season to see how Mary and Lou ripened from stock characters (stammering single gal and hardboiled newsman, respectively) into smart, funny, sexy, real people you swore you knew, and you knew you'd miss. -Steven Stolder.
