Creek DVD Box Set - Series 1 & 2
Release
Date: 16th February 2004
Jonathan
Creek is a master of illusion. Deviser of magic, creator of miracles.
Jonathan creates spectacular stage stunts from his home - a mysterious
windmill in the heart of the country. His brilliant analytical mind
penetrates the darkest corners and cracks the trickiest of puzzles.
Then Jonathan meets unorthodox crime journalist Maddy Magellan,
who soon discovers another use for his extraordinary talent - solving
murder by magic.
The
hottest partnership since Mulder and Scully, Jonathan (Alan Davies)
and Maddy (Caroline Quentin) investigate crimes which seem to have
no rational explanation. He is a bit of a nerd but he also is a
quick-witted genius. Maddy Magellan is an investigative crime writer
and the pair join forces to solve seemingly impossible crimes. There's
also a fair element of the Columbo in here - how did they do it
as opposed to whodunit - but with plenty of twists, so it's never
quite that simple.
Each
episode solves puzzles and tackles mysteries by fusing hard evidence
with illusion and intellect. From baffling cases to bizarre suspects,
the answer always lies in illusion.
Written
by David Renwick (One Foot In The Grave), 'Jonathan Creek' has won
a Royal Television Award for Best Drama Series, a BAFTA for Best
Drama Series and a National Television Award for Most Popular Series.
This
four disc DVD box set includes all eleven episodes from the entire
first and second series (including the pilot episode) with some
additional special features - an exclusive documentary "Long
Hair and Duffel Coat" and commentary by Director Marcus Mortimer
and David Renwick.
