    My mumzy absolutely loves Cumberbatch it’s worrying lol. I’ve been looking around but when I found it here I was shocked. Brand new with the complete series for the price it is I thought no more and bought it straight away. Ordered Thursday and it arrived the next day. Perfect.

    10 disk set of all 4 seasons of Sherlock, plus the Abominable Bride, and there are extras for each season! I’ve not watched the extras yet, but so far, so loving it!

    A really tall order to get right – Jeremy Brett WAS the definitive Holmes. It has been modernised while staying true to the Conan-Doyles character. Cumberbatch is simply awesome with a great supporting cast. Slick well crafted.

    Bought during lockdown as I was shielding with my mum. Great to rewatch this great series, which was new to my mum. She didn’t have blue ray, which is what I had at home.

    Golden Review Award: 7 From Our UsersIts a very standard BBC flip disc in sort of semi OK cardboard boxset. Missing Season 3’s 7-minute mini-episode ‘Many Happy Returns’. Artwork is a bit meh but acceptable, Region free. Arrived in good nick non damaged and in quick enough time. The main selling point is the cheapness of the set, its just enough to keep a fan satisfied. An episode guide would have been appreciated.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Just Enough to keep a Fan Satisfied.

    Golden Review Award: 4 From Our UsersI adore the BBC’s modern Sherlock: the interplay between self-absorbed ber-genius Sherlock (Cumberbatch), Watson (Martin Freeman) as the fearless and almost-always faithful friend: who prevents his companion from flying too close to the sun, imperious older brother Mycroft (Mark Gatiss) occasionally bonding with Sherlock over a forbidden cigarette, the cunning yet playfully-fey, sing-song Moriarty (Andrew Scott) who acts as evil foil, foe yet respected counterpart to the protagonist. Baker 221-B would not be complete without Mrs. Hudson at the detectives’ shambling lair: “I’m your housekeeper, not your landlady!” I confess a special affection for Molly Hooper (Louise Brealey), the young doctor who—holding down the fort at the morgue in Barts’ hospital—whose affections Sherlock often ignores with painful aloofness, but he occasionally confesses his respect and affection (despite feeling embarrassed by her “schoolgirl” crush).

    What’s unforgivable is the box in which the 10 Blu-rays are kept. Yes, the price is phenomenal: over $100 less than I spent for each of the discs in America). It’s compact, but hardly convenient. The two-discs stacked-upon another design is execrable; taking them out of the case without scratching them is difficult, but replacing them into this labyrinth—without causing damage to the fragile surfaces—is almost impossible.

    Almost equally-odd is the fact that (I lost count) approximately 2 or 3 of the Blu-rays appear to restart where you left off, after pressing the Stop button. But most of the discs—like their counterparts in Region A—must be watched from beginning to end. To get up and take a break, one can always set the player on a slow ‘Forward’ (or ‘Reverse’), so long as one remembers to press ‘Pause’ prior to the menu coming back up, at the beginning (or end) of the disc. I own a region-free player; most European discs—except for the those of a particularly-lucrative, mainstream (or both) character—possess this convenience.

    Conclusion: along with Doctor Who, Broadchurch and Black Mirror, these are the UK television episodes I’ll be binge-watching: so long as my vision maintains its acuity. But as a collector, I’m disappointed. I bought a second set of discs precisely so I’d have a bulwark against the tendency of Blu-ray discs to fail: as soon as anyone scratches their surface in the slightest. Why, then, wouldn’t they be presented in a case which maintains their physical integrity?

    Golden Review Award: 2 From Our UsersYes, its geekery. No, I make no apologies.

    I came very late to the party on “Sherlock”, as I didn’t start watching until series 3 – so I missed all the suspense of the series 2 finale (which I’m glad about, as I lack that kind of patience). It made no difference to my enjoyment, because “Sherlock” is a 100%, copper-bottomed, instant CLASSIC. Writing, performances, camera, effects, etc. – all first-class.

    Seriously, just do yourself a favour and watch it. I don’t really like police procedurals per se – but the likes of “Sherlock”, “Ripper Street” and “Peaky Blinders” are just irresistible examples of various takes on the crime genre at its best. British TV drama punches well above its weight, which I’m very proud of as a limey.

    And yes, the documentaries / DVD extras are equally fantastic. I also bought “Jekyll” (starring James Nesbitt) on DVD after watching “Sherlock” through again, another often-adapted book which Steven Moffat wrote.

    The stories are entertaining. We enjoy Seasons1-3 most. It’s a pity that the stories in Season 4 are getting weird and the stories are sometimes a bit confusing and not as lighthearted as the previous episodes.

    Golden Review Award: 2 From Our UsersOrdered this after my teens watched the first series and were desperate to watch the rest. Some mature themes but swearing/violence etc is in context, and not nearly as gory as lots of other stuff out there at the moment. I find these quite funny, and my teen boys have found them very quotable! Thought this was a good time to get the set as it seems unlikely that there will be a series 5, and while I don’t think series 4 is up to the standard of the rest (storylines too contrived, and I struggle to get past that character engaging in an affair as it didn’t fit the rest of their behaviour or history (no spoilers!)), it’s still watchable.

    Great Series… I missed it when it was on TV, my son is doing Sherlock at school and they let them watch an episode, he asked for the boxset off the back of that. I can’t believe I missed it first time around because its really good.

    Golden Review Award: 8 From Our UsersI love the Sherlock series. As with all TV series, some episodes are better than others in my opinion, but overall it is a brilliant series, the highlight of which is, without doubt, “The Reichenbach Fall”, the final episode in Series 3. To start with, I was a bit confused with the three-episode-per-series format, each of which is 1 hour and 30 minutes as opposed to 45 minutes in other shows like Doctor Who, but I soon adjusted and I actually like the format immensely as each episode is like a little movie, and has much more time to develop the plot in than an ordinary series. In conclusion, I think that Steven Moffat has done an excellent job reviving a classic series of novels and short stories and modernising them with powerful actors such as Benedict Cumberbatch and Martin Freeman.

    The DVD arrived quickly, which was quite surprising as I do not have an Amazon Prime Membership, and moreover was in perfect condition. The only minor cosmetic fault I could pick up on was a small dent in one of the corners, but, as I previously stated, it was not major and was barely noticeable.

    However, upon opening the DVD, I noticed that on the first disc, the second episode was incorrectly labelled as, “The Blind Baker”, whereas its correct title is, “The Blind Banker”. As one who notices spelling, punctuation and grammar mistakes first (please don’t hate me), this was a bit of a let-down on the BBC’s part. Nonetheless, all the discs appear to be unscratched and, although I haven’t actually played them yet, I have every confidence they will.

    Many thanks, Amazon.

    Golden Review Award: 2 From Our UsersFirst season I think was very underated when it was first aired. The second season soon caught peoples attention with my favouriite episode of that series based on the classic story of The Hounds of Baskerville. The third season is very gripping and you can really see the time these characters have ( or have not SPOILERS) spent with each other and how they have developed. The fourth season howwever, does seem different and in my opinion, felt very packed and rushed, almost like a Bond film rather than the Sherlock I have watched in the past. However still amazing writing which stems off in all directions and a must watch.

    Golden Review Award: 3 From Our UsersThe episodes are as excellent as I recall when broadcast for the first time. On the two series 3 disc’s I have to press enter instead of play to watch the episodes on my blue ray player. This is a minor point. For the price if you don’t already own Sherlock on Blue Ray I highly recommend this box set, the game is on!
