COMMUNITY REVIEWS

Worth Your While submitted by James C. Clark on November 4, 2012, 8:24pm Another fine BBC mystery production. Entertaining in itself, it is also fun to see how Rufus got his start 'in Hollywood' by checking out the video of Cold Comfort Farm.

Wanted another season submitted by caburr47 on July 27, 2019, 10:02pm Watching this was a refreshing take on police drama. It certainly made me intrigued to read the books. Rufus Sewell is perfect as Zen.
