DVD Description
The Bafta Award-winning BBC courtroom drama with the hard-hitting Judge John Deed. Despite the red robe and wig, Judge John Deed is no average high court judge. Good-looking, fit and fifty-something, he has a rakish charm that belies his sharp intellect. His passion for justice and his maverick approach set him at odds with the Lord Chancellor's department. This judge's individual approach too often flies in the face of convention for his own good as he determinedly avoids the traditionalism the system tries to force upon him. Judge John Deed has become one of Martin Shaws defining roles. The sharp intellect, rakish charm, keen wit and passionate belief in justice were all qualities GF Newman had in mind for Martin when writing the series.

Format:DVD
Judge John Deed is one of the best series I have seen in a long time. It is a great pity it was discontinued and that the last two episodes of series 5 are not available. Through the cases tried by Judge Deed, a lot of very topical questions are discussed - questions that are being discussed all over the world (e.g. the independence of the judiciary from politics, the responsibility of pharmaceutical companies, the right not to submit to medical treatment, intimidation, racism, etc.). In series 6 the last two episodes are best, the first two are much weaker, probably the weakest of all the series. The role is made for Martin Shaw, who gives his best performace in the portayal of the Judge.

We found this dvd to be the worst of the series.Loud music in the background which made it difficult to hear all that was said,therefor missing bits of the plot.Also if we had realised that the disc was coming from the Netherlands and had dutch wording at the beginning of the disc we would not have bought it.

Again another excellent DVD and would recommend it to anyone, exciting and quite fun winning points against the British Government, no wonder the series caused a controversy maybe it was too close to the mark which made for the uproar.
