The endless fascination of this tragic, but intriguing, case guarantees an audience, but having read the book 'The Gamblers' and several others, including a book completed by Lady Lucan before her death quite recently, this DVD could have been much better made. I thought the casting of Mr. Kinnear was quite wrong (and his too long hair was very irritating and incorrect) - one thing Lucan did possess was great presence and this did not come across in this portrayal at all and rather made a nonsense of the whole enterprise. I would recommend reading some of the very good books on the subject, including the one by Ranson, the detective on the case, rather than watching this rather poor film.

I hadn’t seen this when it was first on TV. Brilliant acting, very atmospheric, I’ve been reading up about the history and people involved since watching this. Fascinating.

A great engaging drama of a very unsavory real life event, which to date has never come up with a firm answer to what ever became of Lord Lucan. The highly versatile actor Rory Kinnear plays the lead role of Lord Lucan with excellent depth. His long suffering wife played by Catherine McCormack is also excellently acted. This drama is well directed,filmed and edited with attention to period detail.
Great film all the family really enjoyed it. It was on Tv but we missed parts - much better watching it in one go. we have poor internet so we are still DVD fans!
