Sony's new 2013 Full HD LED TVs are finally available for pre-order in preparation for their arrival at the end of April. Interestingly, the pricing sees the top-flight KDL-55W905A, a 55in W9 series model, tackle the £2,500 price point so beloved of rivals Samsung, Philips and Panasonic. Last year, the brand's most expensive screen, the KDL-55HX83, was launched at a mere £1,800.

Tenacity and perseverance are key strengths in any cop – traits that James Stewart's detective 'Scottie' Ferguson displays both before and after retirement in Hitchcock's thriller. As Vertigo opens, even latent acrophobia can't stop Ferguson pursuing a criminal in a rooftop chase (although, sadly, it does prevent him stopping a fellow officer falling to his death). Later, an old friend's suicide leads to the kind of obsessive behaviour that's necessary to solve even the most complicated cases – but also causes Ferguson to have a nervous breakdown.

The found-footage genre reaches a new nadir with this latest sequel to the popular horror franchise. Devoid of story and lacking any fresh ideas outside of an over-used Xbox Kinect 'night vision', Paranormal Activity 4 is undoubtedly one of the worst films we've ever had the misfortune to be called on to review. This Blu-ray does nothing to help matters, adding an extra 11 minutes of tedium to create a new extended cut of the film (and featuring an extra half-hour of deleted footage as the sole extra). The disc's AV credentials are every bit as predictable as the film itself, being on a par with all the previous instalments.
