Dancing In The Street (12), BBC, three tape box set pounds 34.99/ pounds 12.99 each. From the gritty sound of Sun Studios to the lacquered offerings of MTV, this compelling souvenir series captures the music, the memories and the misfortunes of the late 1950s to the present day, as told by the people who lived it. HHHH

Ready, Steady, Cook (E), BBC, pounds 4.99. Marvel as celebrity chefs Anthony Tobin and James Martin create a fully fledged dish out of a sprig of parsley and sun-dried tomatoes, and as they resist the urge to swat the bleating Fern Britten when she sticks her fingers in the hollandaise. HH

England's World Cup Heroes... & Villains (E), DDA, pounds 5.99 (right). As the nation steels itself for the World Cup, a clutch of clapped out ex- footballers relive the greatest and worst moments in 40 years of football history, using previously unreleased footage from the World Cup Film Archive. HH

The Unknown Soldier (U), Carlton, pounds 14.99. A harrowing series from the writing team behind Peak Practice. Gary Mavers stars as a shell-shocked First World War soldier who is found wandering naked in no man's land and suffering from amnesia. HHH
