His Melbourne Cup winning average of better than one-in-four, is the equivalent of Sir Donald Bradman's unbeatable batting average. Beginning with Light Fingers, Bart's first Melbourne Cup winner in 1965, All the King's Horses traces his involvement with more than twenty champion thoroughbreds, each a different and enthralling story. Included among them are his 12 Melbourne Cup winners, as well as Derby and Cox Plate victors and those special few that won the hearts of the public like Shaftsbury Avenue, Storm Queen, Campaign King, Saintly and So You Think. ALL THE KING'S HORSES: THE BART CUMMINGS STORY - DVD SOMETHING FOR THE GROWN UPSTHE CHARLES CHAUVEL COLLECTION - DVD'sRespected pioneer of Australian cinema, filmmaker Charles Chauvel established a name and reputation for quintessential Aussie storytelling in an era where Hollywood films abound. His distinguished output is represented here in the most comprehensive collection of his work ever put together, featuring: The Moth of Moonbi (1926), Greenhide (1926), In The Wake of The Bounty (1933), Heritage (1935), Uncivilised (1937), Forty Thousand Horsemen (1940), The Rats of Tobruk (1944), The Sons of Matthew (AKA The Rugged O'Riordans) (1950) and, possibly his most famous film, Jedda (1955). THE CHARLES CHAUVEL COLLECTION - DVD's ALL TOGETHER NOW: SERIES 1 - DVD'sAttempting to close the generation gap, popular Aussie sitcom All Together Now ran for four successful seasons, playing out 101 madcap episodes of nostalgic rock 'n' roll fuelled family comedy from 1991 - 1993.Back in 1972, Bobby Rivers (Jon English) and his rock band Still Waters were at the top of the pop charts with "Easy Street", a catchy if not prophetic tune that defined an era of carefree living. Fast forward to 1990, caught in a time-warp - Bobby is wistfully reminiscent of a time when long hair, love beads, incense, peace and harmony were part of the zeitgeist. Discovering he is the father of 15 year-old twins Anna (Jane Hall) and Thomas (Steve Jacobs), it's hard to know who will have the hardest time adjusting to the new family and Bobby will need all the help he can get from long-time friends Tracy Lawson (Rebecca Gibney), Wayne Lovett (Bruno Lucia) and Doug Stevens (Garry Who). Featuring 21 side-splitting episodes on four discs plus a compilation of out-takes, All Together Now - Series One is packed with fun music references, turmoil on the home front and good old fashioned family pathos as Bobby comes to terms with his daughter dating a musician, his son hiring an actor to play dad for parent-teacher interviews and the overwhelming unfamiliar responsibilities of being a rock 'n' roll father.
