I love James Nesbitt and was rather disappointed when Cold Feet came to an end (I bought that boxset too), but he has once again excelled himself with Murphy's Law. The stories revolves round James playing Murphy, an undercover police officer and he takes on some great cases. The first series seemed to go on forever and ever, but I am a bit dissapointed with the following one, as each one is only approx 45-50 minutes long. Series 3 is the same undercover case throughout the whole series, which is the first time they tried that and it worked. The whole set is gripping from start to finish. One of the episodes is set in Northen Ireland and I think some people may find the accents a bit hard to understand, but I just turned the TV up louder and it helped. It is an absolutely thrilling programme and James is definately the star throughout the whole thing. The price is brilliant too, I only paid £30 for the 3 from an online retailer! I would quite happily sit and watch them again and again and roll on Series 4 released on DVD as that shall be pre ordered by me too! Once again the BBC justify the TV Licence. I don't want to give too much information about storylines as I don't want to give away the plots for the programme. Murphy basically goes undercover for various cases and does what he feels is necessary to get the outcome he desires, he's basically the law himself. The DVD's itself has no extras, though interviews with the actors may have been a good idea in hindsight.

Sorry for the lower rate but more info would be useful. Maybe a bit more of an idea of the stories, what extras are on this dvd, if any, etc. If you do ever update please let me know. :-)
