Advantages: Interesting legal drama, contempory issues Disadvantages: Not many in my opinion
JudgeJohnDeed began in 2001. The title character is played by Martin Shaw (The Professionals). The 2006 series of JudgeJohnDeed is now over, after a disappointingly short time ~ only 6 episodes. I think that BBC1 is planning to repeat the first series, which I shall find interesting; I only started to watch this program after family recommendations. The programmes are 90 minutes long, which is normally about the right amount of time, but once or twice in this series I have felt that it was 30 minutes too long.
This series had a good mix of contempory legal issues including and MMR case, where the Mother didn't want her child to have the injection. The Father in this case was a Government advisor with specific interest in the MMR vaccination program. An episode with a prison death showed how people pull rank and don't like to get ...
Black Adder.
Here we again follow Rowan Atkinson who is simply superb and I hope you get a sense of my enjoyment from the following review of the second series
Black Adder ran for 4 series but this review is about just the second.
The second series was set in the 16th century and follows Black Adder as he sucks up to queen bess and nearly, on several occassions, loses his head.
He and his manservant, the wonderfully dopey Baldrick set out to grab as much power as he can. If he can survive the treacherous court goings on and if he can survive Baldricks attempts to "help" him!

Advantages: entertains the kids Disadvantages: not brilliant, not that funny, more cute than funny
I'm sure everyone will remember the hilarious sketch series done by Rown Atkinson as Mr Bean that took the nation by storm in the 80's and early 90's. However he must feel that his looks have faded and has decided to hide behind the newest comedy snippet programme for kids ' animated Mr Bean'. Really I don't mind, and i'm sure that other won't either how ugly Rowan has got, he is and always wil be, a comedy genius.
The introduction of a cartoon Mr Bean intrigued me and so bought the series on DVD. I wondered whether it really was rowan attikinson doing the voice of Mr Bean, and of course 'teddy', as it really doesn't sound like him at all and it wouldnt be surprising as the odd grunt and whimper can be done by anyone.
The basic and gody colours are also a let down. They make Mr Bean look tacky and very childish despite being modern ...

DVD Description
Judge John Deed, although at the top of his game, frequently crosses paths with the establishment and is unafraid of ruffling some feathers. Though he has no qualms about arguing it out with the likes of the Home Secretary and Lord Chancellor’s Office, women have always been a major stumbling block in Deed’s life. Will therapist Rachel Crawcheck help him see the error of his womanising ways?
