« win a prize pack from the AMC to celebrate its original miniseries ‘Broken Trail’ (now closed) | home | contests galore, and a secret to help you win »

win the complete BBC series ‘McCallum’ on DVD

WIN: the 5-DVD set of the complete BBC mystery series McCallum, starring ‘The Mummy’’s John Hannah

HOW: write a funny caption for an image from the show

THE RULES: If you have not won a prize in one of my caption contests or gimme giveaways in 2006*, and you have a United States mailing address, you're eligible to win. If one or both of those rules exclude you but you're moved by the muse of comedy, feel free to send me a caption anyway -- you might get an honorable mention... but let me know you're entering only for fun. (*Micropatrons who've snagged some exclusive micropatron goodies are eligible to win one of these prizes.)

Oh, two more simple rules: 1) Be clever, be original, make me giggle. 2) One entry per person.

more below the ad... scroll down...


The BBC science/mystery series McCallum, which aired in the U.S. on BBC America, has arrived on DVD, and to celebrate, I've got one copy of the complete series on 5 DVDs to give away, courtesy of Koch Vision. Here's the scoop on the show, from Koch:

As seen on BBC America, this critically-acclaimed forensic drama centers around the crimes encountered by a motorcycling forensic pathologist with a passion for truth and more women problems than he can handle. From deep within the morgue at St. Patrick’s Hospital in London’s East End – the notorious hunting ground of Jack the Ripper – Dr. Iain McCallum (John Hannah, Rebus, The Mummy, Four Weddings and a Funeral) and a team of brilliant pathologists and detectives help the dead tell their stories. Together, they painstakingly use their expertise to deduce how and why a life has ended – proving that while it may be too late to find a cure, it’s never too late to solve the puzzle and right a wrong before another body turns up on the table.

McCallum: The Complete Series is a highly-anticipated new addition to KOCH Vision’s ever-expanding British DVD Collection. Featuring nine mysteries from the hit show, McCallum: The Complete Series contains over 15 hours of suspense in a 5-disc set.

My review of the DVD set is coming soon.

If you don’t want to wait to win, you can buy the DVDs at Amazon.

To enter to win a prize pack, send a funny caption for this still from McCallum:

please use this link to enter by sending ONE caption and your U.S. mailing address

YOU MUST INCLUDE YOUR U.S. MAILING ADDRESS. Entries without an address will be disqualified. Multiple entries will ALL be disqualified.

NOTE: Your email address and mailing address will be used ONLY for contest purposes. You will not be added to any mailing lists; you will not be spammed as a result of entering. All contest entries are discarded at the end of the contest period.

The funniest caption among all eligible entries received will win the DVD set.

Deadline: 11:59pm Eastern time, Friday, August 11
