I have spoken to Arrow Films today, and they confirmed that the photograph of the box-set artwork which is currently shown on Amazon, is an initial mock-up. The box-set that is being released has appropriate, Second Series, artwork. The artwork on the box being released can be seen on the Arrow Films website, or, if you watch the video advertisement of the second series, on the Amazon site, it actually shows the artwork of the box, as it will apparently be sold. I am just a customer, so speak for nobody, but on this basis, I will happily purchase this Volume Three.
Also, I do own the complete Wallander Series One and Two, which I bought from Australia, and they do have some differences from these Arrow releases, at least in Series One. The Australian (SBS) Box 1 is Region 4 only, and has yellow subtitles. The other three appear to be region-free. Volume 2 (of Series One) of the Australian versions have quite a number of typos. Vols 3 & 4 seem perfectly OK. For myself, I had to decide whether I was willing to have two sets. On the basis that Vols 1 & 2 of the Australian versions have a few problems, I've decided I will get the complete collection from Arrow, in addition. All depends on how much you love your Wallander I guess!

We have so enjoyed all of the Wallander series, and to find the rest of the second series is to be published with English sub-titles, is wonderful. Thank you to whoever saw sense and made this happen!!!

I am very pleased to see that sense has prevailed and that the rest of the Swedish Series 2 will now be available with English sub-titles. However, it would have been even more satisfactory if the box cover illustration had been taken from Series 2 and not Series 1! Close inspection of the cover illustration shows Krister Henricksson and Johanna Sallstrom in a scene from the first series, probably from Number 9 ( The container lorry). This is particularly unfortunate, bearing in mind that the character played by Johanna Sallstrom - i.e. Linda Wallander - was dropped from Series 2,following the former's suicide in 2007. This lapse seems casual, unprofessional and insensitive.

Addictive Scandinavian Crime Series
Wallander is addictive, as most Scandinavian crime dramas are. The characters are very believable, and the acting is the usual Swedish subtle, not overdone, performances. Read more

Wallander
Krister Henrikkson just makes Wallander so good. The other actors and actresses are all good but without Henrikkson the series just wouldn't have been as rivetting.
