The fact that John Thaw was able to make his eponymous character in Kavanagh QC stand out ... more
as a unique personality distinct from the
superficially similar Inspector Morse says much
about his understated skills as an actor. Thaw
brought his trademark mixture of curmudgeonly
belligerence and gruff sensitivity to Kavanagh,
but the barrister--who first appeared on our
screens in 1995 while the Oxford detective was
still alive and kicking--is no polished-up Morse.
He is far worldlier, is married and has a family.
And although he is often troubled by his cases, he
is never afraid to play the system. He knows that
there are devious, even superficial lawyers, some
of them in his own chambers, who he must face
across the courtroom, but he acknowledges them as
an unavoidable aspect of the world in which he
works.  The plots are often convoluted, but
Kavanagh's wielding of the trusty sword of truth
is always irresistible, particularly when the case
involves some kind of high-level government
aberration. "The End of Law" is a case in point; a
particularly nasty tale about an unexceptional
businessman framed for a murder which covers up an
unpleasant security scandal. It's dark and dirty
and full of troubling compromises. In the end, as
with most of his cases, Kavanagh's craggy features
convey a subtle hint of the sourness which comes
with his chosen territory. --Piers Ford

John Thaw 1942 - 2002 : Tribute Collection
Review of The John Thaw Tribute Collection (Box Set) by Maniac1701d

Advantages: Three disks, special features
Disadvantages: Disks are packaged the same as originals

...I've always been a big fan of John Thaw since seeing an Inspector Morse episode as a young teenager. His amazing ability to bring a character to life and suck you into the role grabbed me from the offset and I followed his TV work ever since. John was born in Manchester on 3rd January 1942 and always wanted to be an actor. He was encouraged by his teachers and at the age of 16 he joined RADA and trained as an actor. John Thaw had parts in many television shows, films and stage shows including: Redcap, The Sweeney, Dead Man's Chest, Thick as thieves and more recently Inspector Morse and Kavanagh Q.C. After his death in 2002 from cancer it was decided to release a tribute to John in the form of a DVD box set. In November of the same year this set was released. To be honest it was a bit of a let down. Contained in the set are: The Dead... Read review

Review of The Royle Family - Series 1-3 - Complete Collection (Box Set) by blissman70

Advantages: Side splitting fun with some good one liners
Disadvantages: Not enough series

...are introduced to Denise and Daves new daughter, Norma Orchid Delulah Porsha, named after Denise's Nana, (Norma…not the rest of the name) The first series involved 6 episodes, each one as funny as the last. From The telephone bill arriving and upsetting Jim to the wedding of Denise and Dave to end the series in style. The second series, again another 6 episodes begins with Denise announcing her pregnancy and ends with Antony's 18th birthday party in which we are introduced to Emma Kavanagh, (Sheridan Smith). Then there was the Christmas special where Denises waters break and she goes into labour whilst Dave is dropping 'Nana' off at home. This special gives a true insight into the how close the family are, especially how close Jim and Denise are as there is a truly emotional scene in the bathroom as Jim tries to reassure Denise that everything...
