Poor audio
Sadly marred by poor sound quality, making it hard for me to enjoy watching it. I wonder if this (and the mis-labelling) will be corrected in the next release a few years down the line, if there is one.

An excellent mini series
This is an excellent mini-series and is well worth getting. IMHO you should avoid the Hollywood film version like the plague as it reshapes the story into a comedy. The mini-series did have elements of black comedy but it was never a laugh-riot.

Please note that this DVD does contain the full series (it was four parts NOT six as stated by another reviewer). However some of the music has been altered due to rights issues.

NOT the complete series
One of my fav. shows, and i was really looking forward to owning it.

the dvd is marketed as being the complete series - but its only 4 episodes of 6. the distributor gets away with saying its complete by showing bits of the cut episodes, they can then print sequential transmission dates on the packaging to fool you into thinking this is complete. It is NOT.

SAVE your money and hope it gets a COMPLETE re-run on cable.

Sympathy for the She-Devil!
Julie.T.Wallace and Patricia Hodge were so perfect for these roles.Particularly Julie T, she steals every scene she appears in,what a shame she has'nt had more leading roles.
Liz Smith gives a terrific and hilarious performance as Patricia Hodge's(Mary Fisher's)trouble making mother.And there is also Miriam Margoyles,Dennis Waterman and Tom Baker.The cast is fantastic,though Dennis Waterman is not convincing as the middle class Bobbo.He is too much of a 'lad'.
It is great wicked fun,and so British.A little dated, but that is to be expected.And it is a shame the cast could not have done new interviews for the D.V.D release.And my discs are incorrectly labelled.But I love it!

Fantastic
Excellent stuff- probably my favourite tv programme of the 1980s. Yes, dodgy hairdos and fashion nightmares abound, but this does not detract from a fantastic tale of utter revenge.

Beware though, my discs were wrongly numbered as well....
