Format:DVD
'Waking the Dead' is probably the best detective drama that has ever been made, and holds this title justifiably because it is so markedly different from other alternatives.
This series is, in a word, stunning. The plots of the episodes are tightly controlled, filled with tension, and the wonderful dynamic between Sue Johnston's calm, pragmatic psychologist and Trevor Eve's manic, instinctive Superintendant make the series worth watching on its own. Although a few episodes in the first series were somewhat weaker than the main, you can't find any holes in this series. Every episode is simply riveting.
Roll on series 3 on DVD, and I have noted that the BBC have started filming a sixth series. This kind of drama justifies why you pay your TV licence.

Format:DVD|Amazon Verified Purchase
Another wonderful series from the WTD team. I would highly recommend this series. It's a terrible shame that the BBC has just confirmed that there will be no more made after Series 9. Another wonderful series goes the way of Inspector Lynley et al... Brilliant service from Amazon as normal.

Format:DVD
This must certainly be one of the best series the BBC has ever produced. Great cast, fast-paced directing, edge-of-seat storylines, no misfires whatsoever. DVD's come with no extra's. But better this way, than making up silly extra's, like the continuing 'look how great we are'-extra's on the CSI-sets or the 'we-could-have-done-without-this'-extra's that come with 'Midsomer Murders'

Show is great!
For awhile, Channel 21 (PBS) was showing this program and I got hooked. Buying them from Amazon UK is actually less expensive than buying them here in the States. Read more
