    The Real Maigret

    Remember Maigret from original 1960's BBC TV. Recently on Talking Pictures TV after about 60 years' absence. Delighted to own what appears to be complete series. Rupert Davies is the real Maigret and Ewen Solon the real Lucas! Only caveat: discs numbered but not labelled with contents and no accompanying information. Will have to set by putting each one into DVD player and noting contents.

  • Most critical review

    Great series, poor quality reproduction

    Poor picture quality recorded off another screen of which you can see dirt and movement, otherwise it recalled childhood memories of seeing this originally on the BBC, sadly spoilt by the amateur reproduction. Advertised as region 2 but packaging had region 0 (worldwide) disappointed customer.

  • Post war Parisian detective using guile and charm gets the baddie everytime. A slice of storytelling history. Settle down with a glass of red. Enjoy!

    Highly entertaining. Good acting, and a slice of yesteryear. Neatly packaged and presented to a high standard. George Siminon was a superlative storyteller and his tales are acted out with skill and humour. Rupert Davis was the perfect choice for this role. Siminon himself said he was the best Maigrait he'd seen. Obviously, there have been later versions. The best being Michael Gambon but for me Davis is the best. This is a cracking boxset and worth every penny!

  • The defining series

    I love television from this era and, in my opinion, this Maigret series is still the defining one in terms of cast, atmosphere, etc. Having the original in digitally remastered form adds to the enjoyment.

  • Nostalgia strikes

    Never expected to see these again. Reliving part of my teens. Pity it was to late for mum and dad to see.

  • A brilliant interpretation of the original stories

    Captures the essence of Simenon's stories. Current Rowan Atkinson versions are far too sober and lack the affability of the original character. The graphics are also very up-to-date!
