5.0 out of 5 stars Holds Up in Comparison, 17 Nov 2008
By Terry Smith (Burntwood England) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)   
John Hannah's version of D.I. John rebus was not too well received when originally broadcast. Hannah was considered to be too young and sauve to reflect the world weary and care worn Rebus complete with personal and private ghosts -and there is an element of truth in that. Ken Stott would later become Rebus in dramatisations based very loosely on the characters created by Rankin and featuring plots that bear little or no resemblance to the books. This version is a far more true representation of Rankin's splendid books. Interestingly, only three films were originally shown and released on DVD. This issue rightly includes the "missing episode" - "Mortal Causes" For those who have only ever seen the Ken Stott version this should be a required watch - and then make comparisions.

3.0 out of 5 stars Agree with the crowd, 5 May 2009
Glad I brought this, as it confirms what I thought when Hohn Hannah was cast. He was the wrong man for the job, but perversly, these adaptions story wise were far closer and better to the books than the first Ken Stott adaptions were, although the second series got closer to the John Hannah adaptions script qualities. Indeed, I would say that Mortal Causes is the best Rebus TV adaption of them all, but with the wrong leading man! (And it was never broadcast).

1.0 out of 5 stars Rebus
Wasnt keen on the John Hannah portrayal - the Scots accents were a bit much for me, stories not bad.

2.0 out of 5 stars Rebus - black & blue
On three out of the four discs the soundtrack was 'out of sync' with the actors voices - on one disc it was so bad I gave up watching it - completely ruined my enjoyment of it.
