Amazon.com: The fact that John Thaw was able to make his eponymous character in Kavanagh Q.C. stand out as a unique personality distinct from the superficially similar Inspector Morse says much about his understated skills as an actor. Thaw brought his trademark mixture of curmudgeonly belligerence and gruff sensitivity to Kavanagh, but the barrister--who first appeared on British television screens in 1995 while the Oxford detective was still alive and kicking--is no polished-up Morse. He is far more worldly, is married, and has a family. And although he is often troubled by his cases, he is never afraid to play the system. He knows that there are devious, even superficial lawyers, some of them in his own chambers, whom he must face across the courtroom, but he acknowledges them as an unavoidable aspect of the world in which he works. The plots are often convoluted, but Kavanagh's wielding of the trusty sword of truth is always irresistible, particularly when the case involves some kind of high level government aberration. The four episodes included in Set 1 are "Nothing But the Truth," "Heartland," "A Family Affair," and "The Sweetest Thing." --Piers Ford

In this series, shot before the Morse saga had run its course, John Thaw plays a barrister who chops, dices, cuts, eviscerates and wins. Sporting world-class shirtings (as the British say) and cuff links, ties to die for and Savile Row suits, Thaw looks every bit the part. This is L.A. Law done with far greater class and skill. The cast includes major British actors in recurring roles, with guest shots ... Read More

many british dvd's are very difficult to understand because of the accents. John thaw speaks so well that he is quite easy to understand. This makes watching this series pleasant. After seeing this one, I bought three more series and enjoy them almost a good as foyle's war.

Over the years I've come to love the late John Thaw but I didn't really fall for him in the Inspector Morse series. It wasn't until after I caught the Kavanagh QC episodes that I began to realize his depth and excellence as an actor and I also realized that the Morse character was part of his act...I thought he wasn't acting so I disliked his irascibleness. I know different now.
He is without a doubt one of the finest British actors that I have ever seen and he is a jewel set amidst ... Read More

Begin seeing this series, now! Go to your Wish List and your Cart, and fill it with some of the "Kavanagh Q.C." discs, now! For some now-unbelievable reason, I had waited about a year between first learning of this British television series, and finally watching any episode. The disc for Set 1, Disc 1, includes two episodes: "Nothing But the Truth" and "Heartland." Also, this disc includes these special features: "John Thaw: A Tribute" and "The Birth of a Series" and "Kavanagh Q.C. Trivia" ... Read More
