Poor Plots, Sterotyped Characters and too much Swearing - By: Opera enthusiast, 20 Jun 2007 
Having enjoyed the first series (mostly) I looked forward to watching the second series. Sadly, although the first 3 episodes weren't too bad, from episode 4 onwards it was alll downhill.
The characters became predictable & the quality control on the plots disappeared. Sadly I bought the 3rd series with the 2nd. I won't be buying the 4th.
NewTricks - By: Mr. Bs Harris, 20 Mar 2007 
This is the best series on television incorporating clever stories combined with an excellent cast. They each carry a certain amount of personal baggage which makes them more endearing & they also make mistakes which makes them real. Congratulaions to alll for this great series & to the BBC for airing it. (...)
New Tricks, new and fresh - By: Konstanze Allsopp, 24 Feb 2007 
The series is a wonderfully different take on forensic, cold case storylines. The interaction between the four actors that make up the team, is hilarious & at the same time, full of great tensions & xhemistry. The individual stories are original & often quirky. I'm glad that so far the BBC has not pulled the series, which they tend to do with the better series they produce, but it would be nice if they released Series 3 asap. It has been a long time in coming & I'm sure I'm not the only person eagerly awaiting Series 3.
Great series - poor packaging - By: Mitch, 07 Jun 2006 
The series continues in great form, & picture & sound quality are quite decent.
However, wins 1st prize in the packaging cheap-o-rama contest for this one: 3 discs stacked on top of each other in a single-disc keep case. This is not only highly impractical, but it also leads to scratched discs over time.
I sincerely hope this does not become the norm!
WATCH OUT IT'S BACK!!! - By: Stefan Mauritz, 03 Apr 2006 
Yes it is back with a "BANG", another cracking series of the good old {retired} boys in blue.
You can reallly sink your teeth into this series with such relish.
Perfect for those rainy Sunday afternoons in front of the box.
Can not wait for season three.
