This is the Discworld’s last continent a completely separate creation. It’s hot. It’s dry…very dry. There was this thing once called the Wet which no-one now believes in. Practically everything that’s not poisonous is venomous. But it’s the best bloody place in the world all right? And it’ll die in a few days except…Who is this hero striding across the red desert? Champion sheep shearer horse rider road warrior beer drinker bush ranger and someone who’ll even eat a Meat Pie Floater when he’s sober? A man in a hat whose luggage follows him on little legs who’s about to change history by preventing a swagman stealing a jumbuck by a billabong? Yes…all this place has between itself and wind-blown doom is Rincewind the inept wizard who can’t even spell wizard. He’s the only hero left. Still…no worries eh? “The Last Continent” is the twenty-second in Terry Pratchett’s phenomenally successful “Discworld” series. Terry Pratchett would like it to be known that “The Last Continent” is not a book about Australia it’s just vaguely Australian.

As anyone who has ever tried to jam more than a few days worth of kit into a rucksack or beach bag will know all too well towels are the arch enemy of packing light. For something you only need once or twice a day it takes up way too much space that would be far better used for your travel speakers picnic camera mask & flippers or dare we say it a few chilled bottles of something delicious. Not only does a trad towel hog way too much space when dry but post plunge it gets everything else you’ve so carefully packed wet and somehow weighs as much as a small child. Charming as small children can occasionally be you don’t want to be carrying one around for long. The Pocket Towel is the perfect solution. Not only does it pack up absurdly small taking up less space than a lemon but it dries in nano seconds (figuratively speaking). Made from an ultra-fine woven micro fibre it unfolds to 80 x 40cm and its super-absorbency will soak up three times its weight in water. Better than a traditional towel in every way we can imagine the Pocket Towel is your ultimate travel companion (with perhaps the exception of a porter) whether you’re going to the beach for the day or the Amazon for considerably longer. It’s a backpacker’s dream and a day-tripper’s delight.

It doesn’t take long does it? One moment Bond is wielding some achingly cool gadget and before you know it it’s on the IWOOT website. Q’s furious of course. The Spy Video Watch is literally indistinguishable from a normal (and actually quite swanky) watch but the crucial difference is that you can craftily record video and take photos thanks to the almost-invisible camera hidden in the number ‘2’ of the watch face. In fact all the features on this genius little watch are extremely well-hidden. There’s a microphone and an LED indicator on there somewhere too but they’re sufficiently unnoticeable for you to get on with the very important business of mucking about. The video quality is pretty amazing for such a tiny camera and you’ll have no-end of fun trying to catch people up to no good (if that’s what you like doing). The stills are excellent too so any Top Secret documents you might happen upon won’t go un-snapped (though it’s just as handy if you see Neville from accounts picking his nose and need some blackmail material… the choice is yours). The rechargeable lithium-ion battery is good for about 2 hours continuous sleuthing (with a full charge of 2-3 hours). It’s got a whopping 2GB capacity as well so you don’t have to worry about clogging it up with pictures of your upside-down face and getting your vids and pics off the watch and onto your computer is easy. Just plug the included USB cable into a port and treat it in the same way you would any other digital camera – your recordings will then be ready to upload to YouTube or send to whichever client you’re doing some private work for. Because it’s such a convincing watch as well (it tells the time and everything!) you’ll be able to snap and film all you like – and not a soul will know you’re doing it.

A volatile, toxic potion of satire and nihilism, road movie and science fiction, violence and comedy, the unclassifiable sensibility of Alex Cox’s Repo Man is the model and inspiration for a potent strain of post-punk American comedy that includes not only Quentin Tarantino (Pulp Fiction), but also early Coen brothers (Raising Arizona, in particular), Men in Black, and even (in a weird way) The X-Files. Otto, a baby-face punk played by Emilio Estevez, becomes an apprentice to Bud (Harry Dean Stanton), a coke-snorting, veteran repo-man-of-honour prowling the streets of a Los Angeles wasteland populated by hoods, wackos, burnouts, conspiracy theorists, and aliens of every stripe. It may seem chaotic at first glance, but there’s a “latticework of coincidence” (as Tracey Walter puts it) underlying everything. Repo Man is a key American movie of the 1980s–just as Taxi Driver, Nashville, and Chinatown are key American movies of the ’70s. With a scorching soundtrack that features Iggy Pop, Fear, Black Flag, Circle Jerks, and Suicidal Tendencies. –Jim Emerson

On CD for the first time this fantastic full-cast radio adventure comes from esteemed producer Dirk Maggs director of “Superman: Doomsday and Beyond” and the recent radio episodes of “The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy”. ; ; Batman has been crippled by his fiercest foe ever Bane: a villain of superhuman strength cunning and evil. With Bruce Wayne confined to a wheelchair who will protect the innocent from the dangerous inmates of Arkham Asylum whom Bane has released? ; ; This stunning audio production was first aired on BBC Radio 1. The cliffhanging all-action adventure can now be heard uninterrupted – with dazzling sound effects specially composed orchestral music and all. You’ve ‘never’ heard a comic sound like this! ; ; Comment by Dirk Maggs ; ; When it was first suggested we should make action dramas in daily three minute episodes I was pretty scared but willing to give it a try. There was a lot of gloomy predictions of failure but once we got into our stride it seemed to work pretty well and it was a format which could be slotted in between the chart records on BBC Radio 1. Also the first real effort to get to grips with Dolby Surround was `Batman Knightfall” which we made for BBC Radio 1 in 1994. ; ; The idea was to create an atmospheric mood which would be quite scary. Paul Deeley did some amazing sound mixing but some of the effects mixing and panning aren’t as focussed as we would do it now on Dolby 5.1. ; ; To be honest everything I have done I would improve if I could go back and do it again … we are all the same perfectionists who – but for deadlines – might never finish a job! ; ; A quick word for Bob Sessions who played our Batman. What a great presence he has what a wonderful voice. And he Was Batman in a uniquely urbane way. My ambition was to do Frank Miller’s `The Dark Knight Returns with him … sadly it was not to be – dear Bob died before it could happen. Thank you Bob.
