Customer Reviews

Hooray - at long last
I LOVED this series, and have been waiting for the dvd for ages. I'm so pleased it's finally out. This was such a truthful, funny, edgy series, about SIXTY TIMES better than the rather soupy and predicatable Cold Feet.

Am going to order copies for all my friends! I can't wait to see it again.

How not to catch a rat
The series concerns three football crazy brothers who live in a claustrophobically close-knit group with their attached women and friends-from-childhood. The main story line describes their failed attempts to break free of this mutual dependency which is wrecking their love life and friendships and hindering them in their career choices. As soap operas go this is well constructed and well acted and eventually leads to reasonably satisfactory conclusions. The one character who gives real dramatic credibility to the whole is the intelligent middle brother Mark (Damian Lewis) a school-teacher who uses more than his blind emotions to guide his decisions but, in spite of his best efforts, is betrayed by his self-pitying wife and his attractive but stupid brother. He is the one who walks away from the sorry mess -- at the end of part one which means that part two, though entertaining is less dramatically coherent. Sarah Parish brings her usual edge to the least soppy of the female characters. The best scene was Mark chasing a rat with an umbrella and getting electrocuted. I was able to sit through the entire 4 discs on a long wet bank-holiday week-end so it can't be too bad.

Cant believe it's on DVD at last
Loved this series, very enjoyable and kick started the career of Sarah Parish! Looking forward to November the 5th, bring on the fireworks!
