Midsomer Murders (Box Set) You're not always safer in the country

of Box Set One The Killings at Badger's Drift Badgers Drift was the pilot and what a way to start. An old lady is found dead in her cottage.

The DVD has very few extras, just the standard sub-titles and a couple of trailers. I've mentioned in the past in my reviews that I always like extras as I believe that they add some extra depth to the film, and so it's disappointing that there aren't any on this DVD.
