duplicates

Hi all, I was wondering if anyone could help me out, I'm trying to find a script that will check my entire array and remove any duplicates if required, then spit out the array in the same format.

Here's an example of my array (as you will see there are some duplicates):

Array
(
    [0] => Array
        (
            [0] => stdClass Object
                (
