I worked at Tomorrow's World from 1997 to 1999, but I was a customer from 1989 to 2013! I used to work on a Friday Nights and it was heaving! Excitement on kids' faces when they got a game or a video/DVD. They'd then scramble for sweets and popcorn before rushing back to their parents car to get home quick! Adults would get just as excited as the kids - especially if they managed to bag a very new and popular release just as the little "OUT OF STOCK" tag was removed from the display cases - you know what I'm talking about! Hahaha! In my years working there, 99.9% of the time the customers and staff were all very happy with Tomorrow's World and what it offered to local community. £3.50 for a new release Overnight Rental is now an absolute SNIP in comparison to the £15.95 "Rental" for new release on iTunes and Amazon Prime etc. What an absolute shame that "Love Film (Now Amazon Prime)" and "Netflix" contributed to the demise of such an industry, only to massively inflate the costs on movies once the "competition" had been removed. I for one would love to see the re-emergence of such an industry, purely to be a part of the community and re-ignite that excitement of the EVENT of going to the Video Library. I would absolutely work for Tomorrow's World for FREE (the odd night here and there) to get this sadly forgotten industry going once again! Antony - Tomorrow's World Employee 1997-1999

What a lot of DVD rental shops lack is old movies or box-sets which they have plenty of here. Gaming wise, they have a fantastic range of XBox and Wii games but could maybe do with a few more PlayStation titles. Plenty of munchies available too for that long night in!

    This is your run of the mill independent DVD shop, selling variety of next gen games and hollywood…read moreDVD's. The rentals are slightly cheaper than the likes of Blockbuster; you can get a DVD/Game to ret for £3.50, or 2 for £5. They've got a loyalty card system to encourage regular renting, although I think blockbuster have the exact same thing as well. The range offered here is perfectly adequate, although nothing that really separates itself from bigger rivals or even shops like Video Box. Thankfully for Tomorrows World though; they are the only DVD shop for a mile or two.

    There is nothing as good then having a dvd shop around the corner where you can borrow your…read morefavourite movies! This is my ideal evening - cancelling everything and just having 'me' time. I am still someone from the dinosaur generation regarding my video recorder, but the selection of videos has expired and I more and more just start watching the dvd's on my laptop. Prime time has a good selection of movies, especially on the comedy side. The ones you just missed in the cinema. Their staffs normally have good recommendations. Prime is open until 12pm, therefore enough time to decide what your plans are that night. Part-time working for Prime Time I always find tempting, imagine sitting there all evening watching the most current movies... They also have the typical cinema supplies to sweeten up your evening with maltesers, coke, ice cream and op corn - relax! Also, if you have an emergency and your internet is not working - they have a well equipped internet coffee, where you pay by minutes. There are also print facilities (expensive). Having a member ship is worth it (you even can have more then one name on it) and is a good way to escape from London life!

    I like this video club and I know it's 2008 but DVD club just doesn't seem to have emerged as a…read moremainstream enough term despite the obvious fact that Prime doesn't sell/loan any videos at all. It's the choice I like here. They have all the blockbusters, the Hollywood stuff starring Ben Stiller and Leo but they also have old movies, plenty of black and white, a few stands of thrillers and horrors, a good amount of shelves for world cinema, classics and TV box sets. The also have a stand for their staff recommendations - look out for Carlos' choices - he's got really eclectic taste and has some really interesting choices including, the other night, a half decent film with Katie Holmes in it - Pieces of April. Having said all this the only nights I entertain renting from here are Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday - for price reasons. Mid week it's 2 movies for 2 nights at £5 while other night it's £3.25 a night whatever the film. Rent on those 3 days though and it's a decent enough deal for a central London video club.

    I revisited Video Box today with the intention of renting a film or two. Unfortunately, although as…read morestated in my previous review of this store, the collection of films on offer is excellent, the prices, contrary to what I had believed, were far too high to make actually taking one of them out worth it. The film Fermat's Room, for example, was available to be rented for one night at the price of £3.90, a quite exorbitant fee considering the film can be bought for just £5.98 on amazon. What this store needs to do is lower the price of its items to something closer to the £2 mark, introduce more deals round the store encouraging individuals to rent more items at a time, and increase the duration of time dvds can be taken out for. Until one, or all of the aforementioned occurs, Video Box is worth avoiding, and I say that as someone who rents approximately 10 movies a week.

    My experience of this video rental store proves how far everyone's experience is subjective…read more Before I moved, my local dvd rental place was bloody awful. It was slightly cheaper than Video Box, but although it stocked about the same number of films, I would spend half an hour browsing the shelves there and come away with nothing, because I couldn't find a single thing I wanted. Imagine my delight when I entered Video Box! Comparably a video mecca, with a large section of foreign films, and at the back of the store, films organised by director! How super geeky and yet educational and cool at the same time. New releases are admittedly expensive, at going on £4 for a night, but if you rent 2 at once it suddenly gets a lot better, costing you £5 for both, and you can keep them for 2 nights. They also do deals on dvd box sets, like you pay a tenner and get the set for a week. Plus the staff are really nice, and they just look exactly how you would imagine dvd rental store staff to look.

    I have spent too long now in thrall of the mighty conglomerate that is Borders Books and Music. I…read moreadmit, when I first discovered it in California about 10 years ago, I thought that we would be so lucky if we ever get a book store of this size in England. Now that they are popping up everywhere I find myself increasingly drawn back to the smaller, individual book sellers. Visiting Richmond recently, where I spent my university years, I popped into the Open Book, and was pleased to say that it was quite busy, and still a great place to while away an afternoon. Although the outside of the shop gives you the impression that it is a small book store, it is deceptively big. It rambles back deep into a larger room. There were many books on offer; an indication that all booksellers are all to aware of the cut price competition they face from Borders, and Amazon. Open Book is a long standing resident of Richmond, and has a section devoted to Richmond life, and history. There are also postcards for sale by the front of the shop which are to do with the area, including Richmond Park, and the River Thames. Do stop by when you are next on a search for a good read, you will be glad that you did.

    This is long, narrow train carriage of a bookshop on a good little street in Richmond. They pack…read morebooks in like Victoria Beckham packs and David Beckham packs. It's crowded at Open Book, not just on the shelves but on the floor and in piles everywhere. It actually brings quite a bit of charm to the place though, it feels fertile and a land of literature plenty. The selection is really impressive and they do the more mainstream thing of grouping books around few topics. Slightly formulaic perhaps but it's good for present buying and the like. I've always found everyone in here to be quite helpful and the tables with suggestions always feature something that takes my interest. One of the best to go to if you're in the area.
