Quite some time ago, we featured the D&G Test Card Watch, and now we’ve come across a similar timepiece for your wall in the Nextime Test Page Clock.
As with the wristwatch, it features the brightly coloured design famous from the early television test card. It also has the words ‘One Moment Please’ written across the bottom for added early viewing authenticity.
It costs just under £32 from Corvus Mail Order.
Diana Rigg was one seriously stylish girl, and it’s no wonder that she was immortalized, like so many others, in doll form after her role in The Avengers.
This classic Emma Peel doll is a definite collectors item – In fantastic condition and with a complete set of 3 outfits. Oh, and that fantastic ’60s bouffant too.
Needless to say, this will probably cause quite the bidding stir amongst vintage collectors and Avengers obsessives alike. According to the vendor it is "extremely rare". If you’re drooling right now, you can beat the rest by putting up the $400 to Buy It Now.

Looking for something a little different to show off this Halloween? How about a wind-up Dracula and Frankenstein?
Both are available from Paul Smith and have the looks of the classic movie interpretations. Just wind them up and watch them hobble about the table.
Sadly, there’s no sound from these 10cm figures, but as they’re only £5 each, you can’t really complain.

We like to do high brow on Retro To Go, but we’re not afraid of going a bit cheesy now and again – and it doesn’t much more cheesy than this Michael Caine Italian Job talking card.
With the phrase ‘Have an explosive day’ on the front, you also get a black and white Michael Caine image, plus that all-important bit of speech inside – the classic "you were only supposed to blow the bloody doors off" line.
Guaranteed to raise a smile from any Caine fan, it retails online for £4.95.
Cheap, cheerful and pretty cool – these Audrey Hepburn greetings cards.

Available from the Monkey Do Collective, a pack retails for $8 (around £4).

Ok, the sun might still be shining, but it can’t last much longer – time to plan that winter wardrobe. And if you’re after something quirky to keep your neck warm, how about these Peanuts scarves.
Three to choose from – Charlie Brown, Linus or Schroeder – each with its own character and theme (we love the zig-zag on the Charlie Brown scarf).
All are made from acrylic and are pretty lengthy too – around 5ft with a 4-inch fringe. Each one retails for $28 (around £14).
