You can depend on the English drama programs to develop their characters. The episodes in this drama take place in a small coastal Scottish village. The first couple of stories in the first year seem to struggle in finding which direction they wanted to go. I found myself hoping they would settle down and somehow get it right. I am glad we were patient. All the following stories were well acted and we fell in love with all the characters of the village. We found ourselves wanting to live in a place like that. The settings - gorgeous! The English drama people know the camera angles, the backgrounds, and the right way to frame a picture. When are the Americans ever going to get it? For a string of good evening entertainment, this is worth the money.
I loved the whole series up until the last disc on the 3rd series. I couldn’t get it to play . It kept freezing and jumping. So I don’t know how the series ends. But up until then it was entertaining and fun to watch.

VERY tough to pick up the Scottish accent. Some episodes are very funny. Some have a serious side. Some will stick with you for weeks. Too bad the BBC declined to continue the series. Standard definition PAL or NTSC. Full frame not 16x9. Ensemble cast. Great characters and actors. Good dog!

British TV at its best. Or should I say, Scottish. A great, fun, touching, entertaining series from the 90's. Made for TV, it is not widescreen, but the characters are delightful and fully fleshed out. Hamish is the constable of a one-street town in Scotland, and the series deals with his friendships and relationships and dealings with all the members of his town. Always engaging. A bit of a collectors' item so the set can be expensive. Keep looking for a better price. It is worth it.

Perhaps if I knew Scottland better I wouldn't think so, but from where I live (USA) the characters are a little too strange. That said, it's generally entertaining.

It's a very good show. Combination of funny and serious (at times). We really enjoy it.

Was so happy to find this show on DVD! It’s such a great show. Robert Carlyle is one of my all time favorite actors and he does not disappoint in this series.
