Amazon.co.uk Review

All three series to date of the terrific documentary series Coast have been brought together in this nine-disc set, delivering over 1600 minutes of fascinating viewing.

If you’re new to Coast, this is the series that investigates and explores the mysteries of the British coastline. It’s an ambitious piece of work, attacked with real enthusiasm and knowledge by its team. And it’s their passion that’s one part of the success of this series.

The other magical ingredient though is the British coastline itself, and few opportunities are passed over to maximise it. There’s some glorious photography on show here, all the better for its digital presentation, and if anything--extraordinary given the running time of the three series--the only criticism of note is that in their desire to cover all of the British Isles, the team go at a faster pace sometimes than you’d like.

That’s hardly a damning criticism though, and it certainly pales in comparison to perhaps the best complement that you can attribute to Coast, that it inspires you to seek out and visit the many places it shows you. A superb, fascinating piece of work, and this three-series set is a complete delight. --Jon Foster

5.0 out of 5 stars Coast - a must!, 20 July 2008
By A. V. D. Veken "avdveken" (Ireland) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   

This is an excellent series with true BBC investigation and great contribution from experts and people that lived during the times that some of the programs refer to.
It is definitely worthwhile buying and watching the whole series and it gives many hours of entertainment at a very good price. I actually think that buying the 3 series in one box is a great advantage and worth the extra money as you can not get enough of it.Great value!
Please go ahead and buy all 3 and you will enjoy it for sure!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Coast DVD Series 1 to 3., 22 Oct 2009
By Mr. T. C. Smith - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This is absolutely fabulous! I was totally ignorant of the series until I saw a repeat from series 3 on BBC2. You'll never realise what is so good about our shores until you've watched these beauties. The crew must of had an amazing time with the travels.
Well done BBC!
I am now waiting to be given series 4 as a present.I've already seen it on BBC2 and recommend it.
