| This movie is perfection in every way. It is so perfect that I never get tired of watching it over and over again. We really have the impression of living in Jane Austen's time when watching that movie. All the actors are brilliant, above all Allison Steadman who is superb as Mrs. Bennet.
Hats off Andrew Davies, Sue Birtwistle and Simon Langton for such a "chef d'oeuvre". |

| There are no flaws in this series based on the splendid stories of P.G. Wodehouse. The setting and backgrounds are beautiful and the writing is excellent, especially in the episodes which were drawn from multiple stories. The true masterpiece of this series is the acting of the two lead characters. Stephen Fry's work has flown under the radar in every instance and his portrayal of Jeeves ranks with the great comedy character depictions. Hugh Laurie is equally brilliant. Those who only know him as ... Read More: |

| David Suchet is the quintessential Poirot. It will be a long, long time before anyone will again be able to play the role convincingly, after the superlative portrayal of the splendid Belgium Detective dreamed up by Agatha Christie.
To see Suchet as Poirot, is to believe the character has come alive before your very eyes. None could give the Christie stories more credence, than David Suchet - a consummate actor. |

| After two dreadful DVD releases (the first and the 10th anniversary edition) in which all of the warmth had been drained from the glorious original 16mm print as seen on TV and on VHS, the BBC/A&E and 2 Entertain have finally repented and this, one of television's most beloved series has been restored to its former beauty. In 2005 I foolishly bought the 10th Anniversary Edition as the cover art-work suggested that the problems with the original transfer had been corrected. Upon viewing it, I wrote to the head of BBC ... Read More: |

| I own both this series and the second one. The problem I had with this one is that it costs a lot and comes with less hours than Series Two. The stories are strong and the characters are both believable and engaging.
Simple, straight-forward british mystery series. |

| Probably not, especially since this series first aired over 30 years ago, but here goes...
I just got this and watched it almost non-stop for three days. I had "Duchess of Duke Street" dreams. When I came to the last disk, I nearly cried, but luckily there is still Series 2, which I just ordered. Everyone else has covered the nitty gritty of this--great acting, historically accurate (such fun to watch for a few minutes then pause it and look stuff up and then watch some more--I learned a lot), fabulous costumes, ...

| I bought this DVD because I was scrambling for any British production to watch on television. British productions always have excellent writing and production values. And then I found "Shades of Darkness' I love ghost stories, especially British ghost stories and this DVD set certainly delivers. The stories deal with the human soul and its complexities and the price one has to pay if you betray it. Great casting as well. The British have a way of putting the spectator right in the middle of the drama as though you are there as well. I reccommend ... Read More: |
