COMPETITION CLOSED! Results coming soon. Once more you lucky Ranger readers get the chance to win a splendid natural history DVD for free. Our latest competition will give away two brand-new copies of the exclusive US release IMAX ‘Deep Sea‘. It’s an ‘immersive adventure’ narrated by a slightly uninterested-sounding Johnny Depp and Kate Winslet. But forget those guys and their cheesy commentary: this DVD is an unmatched visual treat, featuring some really fantastic undersea photography that is well worth seeing.

IMAX Deep Sea

You doubt it? Here are a few links (in a range of styles, so one should work for you) to whet your appetite:

Now you’ve got a missed your chance to win a copy of the whole thing for your own home viewing. How to enter It’s just like last time. There are two ways to win, because as usual The Ranger has got two DVD prizes, and he hates them to build up on the bookshelf.

    Just spent saturday lying semi naked by my pond feeding chicken to the tadpoles & myself to the midges.
    You can keep Johny Depp but if a scantily clad Kate moss wants to pop around & apply bite cream I’m all for that.

  • Well, I’d hope to win this lovely looking dvd, cos I’ve got a new job near the sea, Hoorah! Plymouth to be exact. I missed reef shark awareness day, so would like to know when one is going to bite me leg off! Also I heard that with global warming kicking off fine style (am sat in me shorts in April!!!) turtles have started to behave strangely and are attacking sharks and octopus’ssusses (see dvd cover!). Please let me win, I need help!
    Ps. Thanks for the tips on the website, they helped me nail my first rangers postion, cheers naturenet and its viewers.

  • I would love to be entered in the contest to win a DVD to watch on my brand new HD TV!! lately I have been addicted to the Discovery HD channel and all of its nature stuff.

    We also have a cable channel that shows music concerts in HDTV. They keep showing this Isle of Wight festival thing. What is that?

    The Ranger Responds: Consider yourself entered. It’s a massive rock festival that is held on one of my parks right outside my office window. Keeping the pitches in good order is a right job and no, we do not get free tickets. This year the Rolling Stones will be playing about 200m from my desk! Unless of course you mean the old Festival which featured Dylan, Hendrix et al… I was too young to go to that but my Dad did.

  • I am so glad spring is here. It is time to prepare my veggie garden for planting. This year I really need to be careful of the “wicked poison ivy” as an allergic reaction to it last summer sent me to the ER for corticosteroids. I was covered from head to toe literally with blisters. Any good recommendations for prevention for someone like me Ranger?? Happy Spring all!!

  • I rented this movie a couple of weeks ago and I was pleasantly surprised at how enjoyable it was. I thought Johnny and Kate sounded great and the photography was stunning.

    Interesting site you have here.

    Thanks,

    I’m not sure you were watching the same movie as me. We saw this at the Imax, and not only was the movie great, but Johnny and Kate did a great job. It would be pretty hard to breathe life into a project when you can only use your voice.
