the best so far,
By
This review is from: The Tomorrow People - Series 4-5 [DVD] (DVD)
Although Series 4 and 5 are much shorter than previous series there are some great episodes here.One Law, introducing the character of Michael and is not a bad story. Into the Unknown seems a little overlong with not many set changes. But in series 5 The Dirtiest Business & The Heart Of Sogguth are two of the best episodes in the programme's entire history. HOS even features a few snatches of music from Flintlock. A Much Needed Holiday compares well with Dr Who episodes of this era. Overall less of the annoying humour, with the exception of some in One Law, and evidence of more money spent, better direction, improved special effects and better acting from the leads. (No one could be as wooden as Kenny!). But of course the best feature of these DVDS is the entertaining and very funny commentaries, which keep getting better and better. The only problem with the DVDs (on my set at least) is that the commentary track during episode 1 of Into The Unknown was slighly out of synch. Overall a good clear transfer.

3.0 out of 5 stars
Series slump,
By Michael Finn (Blackburn, Lancashire, United Kingdom) - See all my reviews (TOP 1000 REVIEWER) (REAL NAME)
This review is from: The Tomorrow People - Series 4-5 [DVD] (DVD)
Series four is without doubt the lowest point in Tomorrow People's history. Even as a fairly staunch fan of the show I can't give any other reason than dogged completism to actually own the two stories it comprises; the pantomime-like 'One Law' and the ultra padded 'Into The Unknown'. Michael Hollaway is introduced in 'One Law' and Peter Vaughan Clarke bows out (minus the bow) at the end of 'Into the Unknown' and barring a last inclusion on the commentary of 'The Dirtiest Business' that's the last we see or hear of Peter.Series five is much better with a run of three stories comprising two episodes each. The humour is much toned down and the stories are staged with more imagination and pace. Exras are the usual picture albums and fact files and best of all the commentaries. Series 4 One Law (3 episodes) Into the Unknown (4 episodes) Series 5 The Dirtiest Business (2 episodes) A Much Needed Holiday (2 episodes) The Heart of Sogguth (2 episodes) The introduction of Michael Hollaway to the commentaries does tend to slow things down a bit as he's much less articulate than Nicholas Young and Peter Vaughan Clarke. I'm thankful that Peter was retained for 'The Dirtiest Business' even though he doesn't appear in the story. This box set really does show how low a show can go when neglected but also how good it can be if treated with a little care.
