Dalziel & Pascoe: Season 2

Great series. Detective Andy Dalziel is an idiosyncratic, no-nonsense copper with a penetrating wit and questionable personal habits. Inspector Peter Pascoe is his cultured sidekick -- a thoughtful man with a degree in Social Scienced, a caring attitude, and a sharp brain. These two contrasting characters who share a passionate commitment to justice, forge an impressive crime-solving partnership and a tentative friendship. There are four episodes with lots of twist and turns. Subtitles help the deaf and hearing impaired. I actually use it because of the accents.

Had heard about this show but never seen it. So far have watched 3 episodes and will soon order more.

I have both season 1 and season 2 and shout to the heavens, "when is season 3 coming out?" I love these coppers singularly, but, even more so together. Well-rounded and educated Inspector Pascoe makes a great and dignified straight man to, his boss, Detective Dalziel, who is either scratching his boccies in public, or swilling whiskey as if the Scots were going to lose the recipe sometime soon. This series is very well written, produced, and acted. Maybe it's not quite the most fun you can have with your clothes on, but, hey, you're home, clothing is optional.

Dalziel and Pascoe season 2 is well worth ownimg,it has 4 shows 90 minutes each and who done it type stories.Warren Clarke as Dalziel is very good and the last story in the set is Exit Lines which it looks like he may have killed someone in a hit and run accident,but never fear the real case will be solved,the other three stories are good too so check it out you might become a fan of D AND P.

The only detective show I know of where the lead detective is crude, vulgar at times, and so amusing. Really different and we bought the whole series.

The story lines are good. I really like Pascoe. The head detective Andy is so unlikeable it’s hard to get past that. He has no redeeming qualities. Someone like this would never rise in the ranks of the police. I keep waiting to see some redeemable qualities; none so far. I also grow weary of Pascoe’s wife and her liberal ideology. Why must social issues always be a theme in shows? I’m hoping the next seasons will get better because the cases are interesting. There have only been a couple that I didn’t enjoy.

I ordered Season 2 and four times I have been shipped Season 3. This is ridiculous. I will be sending all three Season 3 DVD’s back. Not really happy about having 1, 3, and 4 without 2. There are more Seasons beyond 4 but now I am not sure. I buy these for an elderly person without access to online programs. She loves them but not sure about losing the continuity of the series and her memory.

My mom loves this show and we both enjoyed this season! It's just too bad the seasons are so short. The DVDs all played perfectly! On a side note, the DVDs aren't anamorphic so they will be seen with pillars on each side of the video.

Series Two is just as good as the first Series of Dalziel and Pascoe. The actors are terrific and the stories continue to be well developed and interesting. If you enjoy British detective drama - this is the series for you. Some wonderful British locales add to the flavour of everything and overall make watching pure enjoyment. One note: Occasionally the British accents against the background 'noise' make it hard to clearly understand the dialogue. But this is not frequent nor does it detract from the positive experience of the Series.

Really enjoyed this video. I like most British police drama and this did not disappoint. I would definately recommend this video series

Outstanding series - good pairing of curmudgeonly old school Dalziel with modern yuppie assistant Pascoe. Tight & witty writing, good acting from lead characters & supporting cast. Every episode keeps viewers locked in suspense. Highly recommend it, you won't easily find quality like this today.

Loved the gritty detective series

Brilliant series!
