DVD Description
The quick-tempered Chief Inspector Boyd (Trevor Eve) reopens the files on four more unsolved crimes in this series of tensely gripping murder mysteries. Challenges facing Boyd's crack team of investigators include a victim of child abuse seeking revenge for the death of his twin, a family murder with vital evidence to be recovered from the bottom of the sea, the increasing likelihood of a mystery second man involved in a high-street massacre, and a cult film tied to the discovery of four bodies in a Notting Hill house, 1960s gangsterland and the background history of one of the team.

With the best minds in psychology, forensics and detection on the case, and cutting-edge techniques at their disposal, if anyone can track down a killer years after a murder, they can. Episodes include: Multistory; Walking On Water; Breaking Glass; Final Cut, with cast: Trevor Eve, Sue Johnston, Holly Aird, Claire Goose, and Wil Johnson.

This box set features 4 DVDs, coming in 2 cases.

5.0 out of 5 stars Consistantly excellent drama, 4 Jan 2007
Eagerly awaiting series 4, but in the meantime: rich scripts, great, generous ensemble acting, excellent production values. The only crime series I watch (although Amazon keep recommending all the 'similar' box sets), and always worth a second viewing. If you haven't seen it, it's a treat.

5.0 out of 5 stars This series won an International Emmy!, 29 Dec 2006
By Olivia Blair "climatic_fanatic" (Aberfeldy) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)      
British television crime drama series produced by the BBC featuring a team of CID police officers, psychological profiler and Forensic Scientist or pathologist.

There have been a total of five series and a pilot episode was transmitted in 2000 (the latest of which aired during September and October of 2005). The first series was shown in 2001. The third series won an International Emmy. Each story in the show is split into two hour-long episodes, normally shown in the evening of consecutive days on BBC One. The programme is also shown on BBC America in the United States.

Waking the Dead will return for a sixth series in 2007. Tara Fitzgerald will be joining the team and replacing forensic pathologist and scientist Dr Felix Gibson.

The programme follows the work of a special police team who investigate "cold cases", usually murders that took place a number of years ago and were never solved. The team uses evidence which has just come to light, as well as modern technology to examine previous evidence. Trevor Eve portrays the workaholic and often eccentric Peter Boyd around whom plotlines are often centered. Earlier episodes of the programme focused more on the crimes being investigated but more recently character development has played a bigger role in the show. An example of this is Boyd taking anger management sessions in series 4.

4.0 out of 5 stars Waking the Dead series 3, 23 April 2009
By Roland H. Ward - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Most of this series was acceptable. However the 'Walking on Water' episode was not very good. 'Frankie' was working on the raised boat by herself. I don't think that this would be standard pratics

2.0 out of 5 stars Can't get into it
I've bought seasons 1-3. The first season I liked it but the boss guy annoyed the hell out of me. I'm afraid he hasn't improved in seasons 2 and 3. Read more
