DVD – tracking down the world's best
• The times are changing, and now discs of the best TV shows can prove as
popular as some blockbuster films. But why does the release policy differ
across the world? Why do extras vary so much between regions? What's the best
product available, and what do we most want to see? Ultimate DVD investigates,
taking in such hit series as Buffy The Vampire Slayer, Friends,
Star Trek and Ally McBeal

 Planet of the Apes

out on one boxset, we give star Peter Weller 20 seconds and more to recall his
time inside the metal suit

imaginative and ground-breaking cyber-adventure, with an in-depth look at the
remastered two-disc DVD
