Explorers of the Titanic (E), C4, pounds 9.99 James Cameron's Titanic tentacles have even infiltrated the world of videos, though there is no sign of the windswept Kate in this documentary. It follows the fascinating fortunes of the real salvage expedition, led by George Tulloch, as they examine the wreckage and reveal some buried treasures. HHHH

Head (U), Warner, pounds 10.99 Head began in a rented house in California where The Monkees spent a month indoors with a tape recorder. Their conversation became a script, the script became a film, the film became a piece of psychedelic pop history and The Monkees became rich. An intelligent comedy classic. HHH

The Monkees - Volumes 9 & 10 (U), Warner, pounds 10.99 each (right) Six episodes of the cheeky chappies' TV show are released to accompany Head. Among their antics is a trip to Las Vegas where Mickey foils a scam involving the Mob, Davy falls for a Mexican bandit's girlfriend and Peter is held hostage. HHH

HHHH excellent HHH good HH average H poor
