Giving Back: Any purchases made on Amazon via links from this site benefit Merlin, the international medical relief charity of which Hugh is a patron.

Here's how it works: click on an Amazon-related item (eg a DVD of Downton Abbey) and any completed purchase made on amazon.co.uk or amazon.com during that visit generates a commission for this website, which is then passed on to the charity. You don't even have to buy the item which first took you to the Amazon site. In the 6 months to December 2011, a total of £101.25 was donated to Merlin this way. So, any time you buy anything from Amazon, please consider doing so via this site - you'll be helping a great cause. Thank you.
