A Dance to the Music of Time (15), C4, pounds 19.99 This rich, though ridiculously condensed, adaptation of Anthony Powell's epic introduces 43 characters in the first two hours - a gallop through the music of time. Simon Russell Beale takes centre stage as Widmerpool. HHHH

Last Of The Summer Wine - A Merry Heatwave (PG), BBC, pounds 10.99. This instalment of the BBC's longest-running comedy series sees the gruesome threesome cobbling together a Christmas video for their beloved Nora Batty, who now lives in Australia. HHH

Shirley Bassey Live - The Diamonds Award Tour (E), Game, pounds 13.99, right Shirley belts 'em out with the usual gusto in this hour-long concert recorded live in Antwerp. Also featuring a behind-the-scenes chat with her recent collaborators, the Propellorheads. HHH

Mosley (15), VCI, pounds 19.99. Off-puttingly hailed on the sleeve as "Leader, Fascist, Adulterer", Sir Oswald Mosley is the subject of this bio-series, by Laurence Marks and Maurice Gran, charting the aristocrat's controversial political and private life. HH

HHHH excellent HHH good HH average H poor
