Softly Softly Task Force: Series 2
RRP: £44.99
The second series of Softly Softly Task Force, the classic long running hit BBC police drama, is available on DVD for the very first time in the UK . A revamp of Softly, Softly, itself an offshoot from Z-Cars, it has become one of the BBC’s most successful spin-offs.
Stratford Johns stars as the no-nonsense DCS Charlie Barlow, a superior officer not averse to thrashing his suspects into submission, and Frank Windsor as his mellower sidekick DS John Watt. Together with their special squad, they tackle the toughest cases Thamesford has to offer.
Underbelly Series 2: A Tale of Two Cities (18)
RRP: £29.99
Australia, 1976. Hard drugs hit the nation like a tsunami. Drug money flooded the underworld. With new money came a new breed of hard men and willing women. Two names stood above all others – changing the face of organised crime in Australia forever – Aussie Bob Trimboleand Kiwi Terry Clark.
Now this story is told in the second series of the multi-award winning Australian true crime series Underbelly Series 2: A Tale of Two Cities, with music composed by Golden Globe winner Burkhard von Dallwitz. This season is set around the drug trade of New South Wales and Victoria between 1976-1987, and follows the rise and fall of real life Australian crime underworld figures, told from both sides of the law.
