Why on earth... July 16, 2010 Ricarda have you changed the menu options? If you forgive my saying so, that is total rubbish.
It was very user-friendly and beautifully made in the case of the first season. I could choose between the episodes and the commentaries/undertitle easily right at the beginning.
Now I cannot see if it is switched on or off. Running the episode and wanting to change something, it does not jumps back where I left off, it jumps back to the very beginning.
It was totally unnecessary to change this. I'm really annoyed about it.
So good it's worth having them sent to France! May 27, 2010 Kiki (France) We watched the 1st series and now that we finally received series 2 we couldn't stop watching.... What a wonderful world is displayed here; although there is pain, hardship, even plain wrong doing - it's never so that you don't want to go on and on! All characters have good and fine sides to their roles, the acting is sublime, and many of the smaller parts from series 1 have now truly brilliant roles. We found every player absolutely plausible and Laura's tears were so real, Alf's heart was heard when it broke and sang when mended, little Minnie is developping in a mind blowing fashion, the couple Twister and Queenie are simply wonderful. Actually, it's unfair to mention some roles and not others because every actor is exceptionally good in their role. I often said that 'Thomas Brown' will be settled for life with those thinly set lips and that holier-than-thou look :)
Now we have seen the parts 1-12 we are only sad because we will have to wait a long time before we can get the series 3!!! This must be one of the best, if not THE best BBC costume series.... Worlds better than the many soap operas we occasionally also buy! These are films you can watch 'en famille' and that merits a mention too.
I have no idea how close or far from the book(s) these films are, but I think nobody would complain even if they are a bit different to the novels.
Dispatch was quick and with no trouble involved. Thank You!!!
Taking liberties May 21, 2010 G. M. J. Jones (London, UK) 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
Series 1 was worth watching; not the same class as Cranford, but nonetheless an interesting dramatisation. The same cannot be said of series 2. The series 2 collection started with the awful Christmas special, which was ghoulish nonsense. As the remaining episodes progressed the underlying propaganda 'PC' messages became apparent. I do not watch period dramas to be fed the 21st Century social agenda. The BBC is pathetic. If the BBC wants to promote secular-humanism infused with Earth-worship then it should do so directly and leave period dramas alone. This dramatisation is disrespectful to the memory of our late-Victorian ancestors, whose legacy of faith, morality and social conscience is obviously not safe in the hands of our public-service broadcaster. Thankfully, there are sufficient dramatisations already in existence of superlative quality. I will avoid the BBC's output from now on.
Brilliant May 15, 2010 septimus-blake (ENGLAND) Series 1 2 and 3 are just brilliant, no one can make them like the BBC.
Sensational! April 16, 2010 Mrs. N. J. Chadwick (Cornwall) I love every aspect of this series although it has strayed far from the original book by Flora Thompson. Essential family viewing with outstanding acting from all lead and minor characters. The filming, music, plotting and atmospere are unparalleled in modern television. Do watch the series in order though. I am a huge fan!!!
