Best Hard-Drive (HDD) recovery software

Ok, I have an external and internal that I need to get some data from, the only problem being that I have used various software to try and they haven’t as successful as I have guessed they would…
Either I need to except that I aint getting the data back, or try one last time 2 scream out 2 ppl to ask what software is BEST for recovering data from a HDD.
For the UK users here that read this, do you know what the likes of PC World use to recover data? They charge enough (about £70 I think, not that i’ve ever been tempted 2 get them 2 do it… rip off, would rather loose my music n films n re-dwnload them again!).
Someone here must know about this topic, so please again I screm out for your help!!!
Thx in advance!
