Magpie Murders: Season 1 (Masterpiece Mystery!)

As really complex original story . Just what you need on a cold winter evening when the rain's beating against the window and it's too early for bed

Given that this was written by the fantastic Anthony Horowitz (Foyles War) we were expecting it to be good and this did not disappoint. It was so clever. Fingers crossed he will write a season 2.

Always buy dvds from Two Laughing Dogs as they sell ones that are compatible with the UK region dvd players. Not sure why Amazon UK promote the American PBS dvds which aren't . Brilliant crime series written by Anthony Horovitch as sn adaptation from his book. Look forward to series 2.

Impressed I was not. Love everything by this author normally and was very excited at the prospect of a new tv series but found this so disjointed, boring and unwatchable that I switched off my tv and read a book.

Had to watch it twice to understand it - brilliant!

Until it had been despatched it was not clear it was a DVD from the USA. It cannot be played in the UK as it is in US format. Why is this allowed on the UK Amazon platform?

The production is brilliant I and wanted to buy the DVD for a friend so they could enjoy it too.There is nothing in the details on Amazon to say it is not for viewing in the UK so unfortunately it turned out to be a rubbish present.

WHEN I GOT IT I FOUND I COULD NOT PLAY IT AS IT WAS FOR THE AMERICAN MARKET.I WAS VERY SORRY ABOUT THIS.

A masterpiece of juggling different timelines and real and fictional characters. Took me a couple episodes but I was drawn into the story and ended up really liking the approach. I am sure some will never embrace this series but I think I can say with confidence most will like it if you give it a try. Good subtitles, pace and acting. Very nice mystery with great casting. No nudity and gore.

I had seen it on the library website as a new incoming dvd and knew Anthony Horowitz from his dvd Foyles War that I absolutely loved. So I borrowed it. I loved it so much that I ordered it on amazon and rewatched it again within a month.Liked it so much that I even purchased the book by the same name/ same author. The book was good, and normally the book is better but in this instance I Really, Really liked the movie much better. The book had the beginning and the ending, plus the other part in between where as the movie they flipped back and forth but in a way that it flowed together quite well. I was totally impressed by this 45 minute x 6 episodes and can't imagine my life without having seen it.By the way, I've also watched Foyles War twice and hope to watch it again soon, loved that too

I totally enjoyed this film, very captivating
