If you download the video using the highest quality (I saw 720p) and then using a viewer that allows you to copy frames to the clipboard, you will get better results. You have to remember though, the bubbles are moving and that will cause some blurring. But if you open the captured image will a good photo editor you can use sharpen to make it a little better. You can also clone some of the best bubbles, resize them to whatever you want and paste them into a white background you start from scratch (shrinking big bubbles will make them look sharper too). By using play and pause, or frame by frame advance, you can find the best frame and do some cleanup editing on it once you have the best capture.

Appzalien, thanks for the answer (and everyone else)
Would you suggest photoshop for this type of editing or do you have any other suggestions?

I like the older Photoshop Elements myself (I use 2.0) since it's a little less daunting than the full Photoshop 7 or CS. You can use the eye dropper to select a copy of the background color and zoom in to cleanup any irregularities around the bubbles with the paint brush. The brush has three important settings that are useful so learn how to re-size ([ and ] work for that too), select sharp or fuzzy (brush drop down) and finally opacity (two passes of 50% is the same as one pass of 100. It's a little easier to control your strokes if you do not use 100%). Get used to what the differences are between the sharp edged brush and the fuzzy, fuzzy can be very useful. You can use the Marquee tool (rectangular or elliptical) to select a bubble, copy it and paste right where it stands and then grab it with the move tool and put it where you want. There's so much you can do and a lot to learn but its fun when you get it right. By the way, Wondergirls pics might be fun to experiment with since you can copy and paste a sphere to your photo, re-size it to your bubble size and use the layers window on the top right to fade it away just enough to add some dimension to each bubble but not to replace it..
