This is a "box set" of the first 2 series. Now we are on series 10,11, 12 or is it 13, some of the stories have become a bit tired - watching these first 2 seaons there was more than a hint of formula to it all ! But it is gentle TV, good for all ages from 15 up (murder is what it's all about - so it should carry a PG/15 label). Yes, Agatha Christie had more twists and more literary allusions, but each film here is a good hour of fairly gentle escapist TV viewing. After series 2 the cast started being killed off or departed the island, so this box set is the "pure version". The image and sound on my version were very good - without any skipped or dropped sections.

Series 1, disc 1 seemed to start part way into the story. Tried to rewind but still the same. Normally story starts with crime trailer, list of actors then into the story. The other stories needed to be rewound to the beginning to see whole story! Wondered if was manufacturing fault! ? Disc 2 seemed ok.

I came late to "Death in Paradise", and was delighted to discover that my friends' praise of the series was justified. The setting is unusual and charming. The characters are engaging, quirky and credible. The mixture of drama and humour is well balanced. For a lover of real fair-play detective stories - and especially of "locked-room mysteries" - "Death in Paradise" is the best thing to hit British TV since "Jonathan Creek". And "Jonathan Creek" is the absolute best in that rather specialist field.
