​The scarce dvd 'King of the Travellers' is one of the best Traveller dvds ever. It tells the story of a murder after a sulky race, feuding between two families, bare fist pugilism, love, betrayal and revenge. Extremely well observed in all respects. Brilliant!  There is a double twist at the end which will catch you out. Region 2, 80mins. Stars include John Connors, Michael and Thomas Collins, Stephen Jones, Packy Lee, Peter Coonan, Carla McGlynn, Mick Doran. £7.50
