We’re celebrating the fact that CSI: Crime Scene Investigation has now been on television for an amazing nine seasons, and we’ve got 3 copies of the CSI: Complete Season 9 on DVD to give away, but we’ve also got our mitts on this fab video which highlights the best bits from the first eight seasons of the show, covering the highs and lows of Gil Grissom and his Vegas team in action… Enjoy!

It’s hard to believe that the CSI: Crime Scene Investigation forensics team have now been on our screens since October 2000!
With 200 episodes in the bag, the Vegas crew are still going strong, albeit without William Petersen’s insect geek Gil Grissom at the helm.
Now on season 9, regulars Catherine, Nick and co are led by newcomer Dr Raymond Langston (Laurence Fishburne), as they doggedly investigate the seedy underbelly of the glitzy US city. Carrying on from the cliffhanger at the end of the previous season, the thirst for revenge leaves one team member in grave danger, and another dead. As they deal with the aftermath of the murder, the CSIs are forced to confront personal issues of their own that leave them wondering exactly who they can trust.
For the first time ever, CSI: Crime Scene Investigation is available to buy in one complete season, as Season 9 is released on 1st March - and it’s also going to be in Blu-ray high definition.
To celebrate, TVSpy has got hold of three copies of the DVD. To be in with a chance of winning, just answer this question:
Q.What is the name of the Academy Award-winning actor who takes a lead role in CSI Season 9?
a. Laurence Fishburne
b. Laurence Fishbone
c. Larry Fishburn

If you just can’t get enough of those Supernatural Winchester boys, Sam and Dean, you’ll be pleased to hear we’ve got a competition just for you!
Hardcore fans will have heard of the companion series of books by award-winning sci-fi and fantasy writer Keith R A DeCandido, chronicling the adventures of the brothers in their fight against evil. Now, Keith has released a brand new book, called Supernatural: Heart of the Dragon.
In the book, renegade angel Castiel alerts Sam and Dean to a series of particularly brutal killings in San Francisco’s Chinatown, and they realise that the Heart of the Dragon is back. Their father, John Winchester, faced the terrifying spirit 20 years ago, and the Campbell family fought it 40 years ago – can the boys succeed where their predecessors failed?
The book Supernatural: Heart of the Dragon goes on sale on Friday 26 February, but we’ve got three copies to give away, courtesy of the always generous folk at Titan Books.
