A mediocre introduction to an excellent TV series
As a Minder fan since its first airing on TV twenty eight years or so ago I was really looking forwarded to ploughing through it all again. After this series I was left a little disappointed. It is very much a warm up, introducing and getting to know the characters and giving their relationships a chance to develop. Many episodes, whilst still watchable, left me a little empty and they did feel very dated. However, things do improve as you work your way through and certainly subsequent series, especially 3-5, are excellent. Series 1 and 2 are more serious than latter ones though they do show glimmers of the more comedic side to come.
In summary, this is a must watch and a rite of passage to the later episodes. Do not let the three star rating put you off, it's really a reflection of how good the later 5* series are.

Minder
The entire series represents a wonderful commentary on 1980's Britian from the the free marketeteering Arthur to the social conscience of Terry McCann. The humour is timeless, the characters broad ranging and sometimes eccentric and the juxtaposition between law and order and a nice little earner is central to every mouth watering epidsode. A truly brilliant series which must hve one star deducted, because as a hearing impaired person there are no sub-titles
