We had travelled all the way to Wembley, just to eat dosas at Saravanaa Bhavan. And as usual, we…read moreover ate. The typical way to finish an Indian meal, especially if you have over eaten is a paan (betel leaves stuffed with various ingredients that act as a mouth freshener and a digestive) We were bemoaning the fact that fresh paan is almost impossible to find in London and suddenly in front of us, we saw Krishna paan. He only has Calcuttiya leaves (the betel leaves come in multiple varieties) but beggars can't be choosers. He has an assortment of paan masala like rajnigandha. A few of the standard fillings and we were able to get exactly the stuffing ingredients that each of us wanted. His rolling technique isn't very good. The fillings were leaking out, (so I couldn't take pictures) but the material was genuine and we were quite happy with the end product.

The Game Spot sells non-bootleg DVD's for £5. I'm not wholly against bootlegs. In fact when…read morerandom people come into shops trying to sell me their totally illicit film wares I'm generally always up for having a peek. There's a risk with the purchase though. Since I'm the most unlucky cookie on earth I tend to buy the bootleg DVD's that have been filmed in the movie theatre by some random person eating popcorn who decided that the best way to capture quality was to film the movie on his/her mobile phone. In these situations those bootlegs are complete rip-offs. If you don't want to face the agony of living through that possibility then come to Game Stop. They sell video games for all systems. Also, they trade your DVD's and games for store credit or cash, so if you want to get rid of that documentary on Little Richard's life story then this might be a good place to get that off your shoulders.

The Nickelodeon video rental shop in Queensway is a wrench for me, because its situated so far away…read morefrom where I live! They are basically a much much much MUCH smaller version of blockbuster - videos (but generally DVD) rentals on a host of household film names. They also do the hugely more preferable deal on top of Blockbusters - £1.99 for a DVD per night. Compare to blockbuster - you rent out a film and, of course, will watch it once. So why have you spent £4.50 to rent it for three nights? How is that helpful? No sense?! That's why I love this shop. Their selection is massive considering the shop size and there is something to satisfy even the most ardent filmfan. Give it a visit! Free membership! Sign up now!
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.
Tomorrow's World Video Library Overnight Rental Fees 2013:…read more New Release Movie = £4.00 Amazon Prime Overnight Rental Fees 2023: New Release Movie = £13.99+ iTunes Overnight Rental Fees 2023: New Release Movie = £15.95 To put this into context - 20x Rented New Release Movies per year: Tomorrow's World Video Library = £80.00 Amazon Prime = £280.00+ iTunes = £319.00 (Shop Review) Tomorrow's World in Boundary Road, Hove was a hub of the community. 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!
My very nice top spec MacBook Pro was sent in for a cracked screen replacement and came back with…read moremajor problems. It runs incredibly slowly. Their diagnostic was that one of the processors had died and they were going to resolder a new processor to the logic board (if you know anything about micro soldering you will know this is a terrible idea). Fortunately the Genius Bar at my Apple store diagnostic told me that the processors were both fine, the problem occurred from sensors being removed from the logic board which are now missing. I won't even tell you how much the botched the screen repair. (Highlights include magnet lost so the machine doesn't sleep once closed, the mic and camera no longer work and the screen is wobbly. All probably because the new screen was fitted inside the old shell and badly glued back down.) Yes they were much cheaper than the mac store. But now I'm looking at huge repair costs to get my machine back up and running. They were very friendly, but I would never trust them with a machine again.
This is a great shop. It's on the Pinnacles Industrial Estate, next to the Total Petrol Station and…read morehas free parking at the front and the back. Inside you will find a huge range or adult films (R18) and also adult toys, magazines and sexy undies. They sell the herbal 'viagra' tablets and at cheaper prices than on the internet, including the new 'Raging Bull' that I can highly recommend. The staff are friendly and will always give you a discount if you are cheeky enough to ask. There is even a back door for those too shy to use the front!
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.

Gazelle Video is in The Pantiles area of Bexleyheath, a few doors down from The Earl Haig. It is…read morelike a mini Blockbuster with the latest DVD and video games titles on offer. Price wise it is the same too. The only difference is the quantity they stock. Occasionally you might have to wait for a film to come back into stock if it is popular. The shop is small and has a real local feel to it which is a big attraction to me. If there is little difference in price and quality I would much rather put my money into the pocket of a local business than a large multi-national. Parking is available in spaces directly opposite the shop. Conveniently there are a range of take aways and a off licence on the other side of the road too so you can get everything you need for the ultimate night in in one trip out.
I used to be a member here a few years ago and they do have a good selection of films. This place…read morereminds me of the sort of local video shop you used to go to when you were younger. Small and on a side road or parade of local shops. The downside is they don't always have many of them, so you can find it hard to get that latest release you really want to watch. The up side is they have a lot of films to choose from and you can call and reserve films so when they do come back you can get them. Plus they are cheaper than you Blockbusters. I love supporting local shops whenever I can, but to be honest we started going to Blockbusters again as it was just too frustrating not to be able to get the film you wanted to see when you wanted to see it.
Great film rental shop, they almost always have any obscure film my wife and I ask for (which you'd…read morenever find in the local Blockbuster), and if you rent a new release you get an old release for free for 2 nights. They also have PCs you can use for accessing the Internet for a fee, I've never used it so can't tell you how good this service is but it always seems to be busy whatever time of day I go there.
The Film Shop is a video store for people that are 'into cinema' and by that I mean it had the kind…read moreof films you would never find in any of the mainstream chains. Personally I'm a bit naive when it comes to all of this but my boyfriend loves it here. Whenever we visit he is sure to rent something he knows I'll like and something that will be in subtitles or shot upside down that is intended to 'educate' me in film. Sounds fun huh? Actually, everything we've hired from here has been really enjoyable and having access to such a great shop is making me more determind to learn about the 'classics'. Service is great and the staff are lovely. I was once a day late returning three films and I apologised so much that the guy said he didn't have the heart to fine me. This kind of attitude is a million miles away from the Blockbuster's style and all the better for it. Although The Film Shop tends to be slower at getting the big titles in, their stock is so substantial that there is always something you'll want to watch. Being so well located in the middle of Stoke Newington it makes planning a night in easy. Buy a pizza from down the round, rent a film from here and lock yourself away for the evening. Perfect!
I was outraged when the Blockbusters next to my house closed down and yet another Tesco's was…read moreopened in its place. I had grown extremely fond of the strange people that worked there, like the man that recommended Final Destination 2 to me and described it as "very believable." I ranted and raved, then I moved to Stoke Newington and I wouldn't be seen dead in Blockbusters now, even if it was still open. The Film Shop is my local video store now, located on Church Street and specialising in independent, art house and World cinema, it fits perfectly into the smug atmosphere of designer card shops and organic, free-range food shops. It's been open for about twelve years and the staff are friendly and knowledgeable. Its very reasonably priced, the other day I hired fairly recently released Darjeeling Limited for four nights and it only cost £2.50: bargain. However it is best to check that your selection is in stock before arguing with your boyfriend and then setting your heart on it, because unlike Blockbuster, they don't have those huge blue and yellow stickers to tell you that Final Destination 2 is unfortunately unavailable.

It also has access to the internet which is about £1 per hour to use in addition to a fax and scanning service. The reason why I like this place so much is because the man who runs it is lovely. I was ripped off for a fax service at one of the local internet cafes and had to abandon as they wanted to charge me £25 but failed to tell me this before I used the machine. I came into New Scene Video where I was quite upset with how I had been treated in the previous shop. The man let me use the fax service for free which I felt was very nice of him. He is also very friendly to customers and helpful if you are looking for a particular movie. A credit to Surrey Quays!

Movies are arranged by genre or country - I was impressed when I found my favorite movie ever, Le cercle rouge, in plain sight. The selection is huge thanks to a downstairs storage room. I was let down by the rental policy: you need an account to rent, and you need a credit or debit card to set up an account. I didn't have any plastic cards with me, so I was unable to rent. But I was able to purchase City of God as they accept cash for purchases, so all is well. It's nice to be able to rent DVDs like we all used to.

They'll have a chat and are happy to order anything you'd like (in the film genre of course). Film/dvd rental shops are a dying breed, and it takes a gem like Video City to stay alive.
