  • Audio Commentary
  • On set interviews with Harriet Walter and producer Richard Stokes

4.0 out of 5 stars once again NO SUBTITLES, 25 Feb 2010
By Susan Belcher "Su B" (St Helens, England) - See all my reviews
(VINE VOICE)    (TOP 500 REVIEWER)   
This review is from: Law and Order UK: Series 2 [DVD] [2009] (DVD)
Law and Order UK returns for a second season, this time there are only 6 episodes (one less than last time) and again these episodes have been "adapted" from episodes from the American versions of the series. It is a double disc set which means that there are 3 episodes per disc plus extras.

Disc 1

1. Samaritan - adapted from US episode "Manhood"
Commentary
2. Hidden - adapted from "Bitter Fruit"
3. Community Service - adapted from "Volunteers
Extended and Deleted Scenes
Tour of police set with Freema Aygeman including a 40 second interview (yes that's 40 seconds) with Robert Glenister about his character in the episode "Honour Bound"

Disc 2

4. Sacrifice - adapted from "Sonata for Solo Organ"
5. Love and Loss - adapted from "Consultation"
6. Honour Bound - "Corruption"
Commentary
Extended and Deleted Scenes
Interview with Harriet Walter
Interview with Richard Stokes

There are NO SUBTITLES.

As with the previous season the "Law" consists of: Ronnie Brooks (Bradley Walsh), Matt Devlin (Jamie Bamber) and their boss Natalie Chandler (Harriet Walter); the "Order" are James Steel (Ben Daniels), Alesha Phillips (Freema Agyeman) and their boss George Castle (Bill Patterson).

I have a couple of grips with this series:

1. No subtitling - do the producers of the DVD really think the hard of hearing don't watch DVDs

2. No audio description for the blind or partially sighted

3. Why on earth, with all the good writers and possible stories there are, isn't the UK show producing it's own independent stories rather than recycling old US stories. Does Dick Wolf think that we in the UK are that thick we won't notice?

On the good side, there is an exploration of the growing character relationships between detectives Ronnie Brookes and Matt Devlin.

This was the Ronnie Brookes season and Bradley Walsh was the stand out actor of this season. Over this season we also learn more about the history of DS Brookes, and, according to a recent interview with the show's Executive Producer, we can expect to learn more about the background of Matt Devlin next season.

I enjoyed this season and look forward to the next with the hope that it will be longer, flesh out the characters more, and have more extras such cast commentaries, out takes and SUBTITLES.

4.0 out of 5 stars If You're a fan of Law & Order, buy this..., 8 April 2010
By F. G. J. Mcmahon "Hello" (Wythenshawe, MA, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Law and Order UK: Series 2 [DVD] [2009] (DVD)
Law & Order: UK (aka Law & Order: London) is adapted from the hit US show "Law & Order". in this series Freema Agyeman and Bradley Walsh star as Junior Crown Prosecutor Alesha Phillips and Detective Sergeant Ronnie Brooks and do a fantastic job of it. if you are a fan of Law & Order or Law & Order Trial by Jury this is the DVD for you, however if you prefer Law & Order SVU or Law & Order CI, you might be better sticking with them, as this is more courtroom and less police work. Joining Phillips and Brooks are "DI Natalie Chandler" (Harriet Walter), "Senior CPS Prosecutor James Steel" (Ben Daniels), "DS Matt Devlin" (Jamie Bamber and "Director of CPS London George Castle" (Bill Paterson). This DVD Features some of the best episodes yet, including "Samaritan", "Hidden" and "Community Service" on Disc 1 and "Sacrifice", "Love & Loss" and "Honour Bound" on Disc 2. Joining the hit cast is Robert Glenister (A Touch of Frost) as DS Jimmy Valentine in the series finale...

Now Why I Deducted a Star: The DVD art is the same as Series 1, yes they changed the background and swapped the characters around, but it is the same... NEW ART PLEASE Playback!

Have you seen this series on Tv? if not,give yourself a treat,draw the curtains,settle down and enjoy some of the best acting on the small screen.even if you did catch it,enjoy again.
the cast compliment one another,all leading performers in their own right,no one hogging the limelight,and so convincing,you forget they are acting.
I highly recommend the whole series.I shall certainly watch it over and over
