DVD Description
Catch up with the secrets and lies that lurk beneath the calm surface of Meadowlands in the dark mystery that is Channel 4’s Cape Wrath.

When Danny Brogan, his wife Evelyn, and their teenage twins Zoë and Mark move to Meadowlands, they seem to have landed on their feet in a 21st-century suburban paradise. But the Brogans are on the run from a dangerous past and are here to create a new life as part of a witness protection programme, only the inhabitants are stranger than they first appear. Murder, conspiracy and sexual tension are the undercurrents in this eerie, yet mesmerising Twin-Peaksy series.

Includes all 5 episodes in Series 1.

More about the episodes: The Brogans move to a seemingly idyllic suburb to escape something sinister in their collective past. They meet Brenda, their hyperactive and highly strung neighbour who speaks of almost nothing but the beauty of her daughter Jezebel.

They meet Jack (of all trades) Donnelly, the local handyman who feeds off people's fear of him. They meet Bernard Wintersgill, a police detective who ensures the residents remain lawful and dispenses justice as he sees fit. Keeping an eye on them all is the seemingly impenetrable 'handler' Samantha.

The Brogans very quickly realise that beyond mother Evelyn's melancholy, daughter Zoe's cold, predatory behaviour and son Mark's refusal to speak, they are not the only ones living with the repercussions of dire decisions made in the past.

Everyone in Meadowlands has something to hide and it's only a matter of time before their secrets resurface to ruin them.

Synopsis
Underneath the welcoming facade of a suburban paradise lies a mixture of dark secrets, for Meadowlands is a place where everyone has something to hide. Running from a troubled past, the Brogan family are sent to Meadowlands to commence a life under the confines of the witness protection programme. As the Brogans become acquainted with their newfound neighbours, they soon discover that no one is as they seem.

4.0 out of 5 stars An excellent series so far!, 12 Oct 2007
By D. Camden "liv" (south east england) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I've just finished watching episode 4 of this series and can't wait to see the rest! Cape Wrath is an excellent drama that keeps you guessing throughout and certainly has its fair share of violence and psychological mind-play. It has sparky and interesting characters and is extremely well cast. There are some characters that appear extremely irritating at first but their place quickly becomes clear, the cast is well balanced and there are few gaps. Some parts are perhaps a bit contrived and the set is a little odd and looks extremely american, perhaps to appeal to the US viewers?! Overall though I would thoroughly recommend this series and will be lending this to countless friends in the coming months I'm sure.
This has got to be english drama at its near-best. Cape Wrath is frightening and compelling and keeps up your interest. I've just found out that the second series has been cancelled - what a shame! a bit more advertising maybe! none of my friends had even heard of it!
