## Description

All nine series of the detective drama series starring John Nettles as unorthodox Jersey cop Detective Sergeant Jim Bergerac (John Nettles).

    John Nettles in iconic 80s Detective show before he lived in Midsummer
  

*by B***! on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 6 March 2024*

If like me you grew up in the 80s then this was a must watch, set on the island of Jersey and starring John Nettles as Jim Bergerac a detective sergeant solving crimes and dealing with his ex father in law Charlie Hungerford whenever he goes to pick up his daughter to spend time with her after divorcing his wife.Eagle eyed viewers who watch Doctor Who will notice there a  couple of stars who appear as characters in the show,  Annette Badland,  Celia Imrie and Louise Jameson starts as John Nettles girlfriend in the show.  Liza Goddard also portrays a memorable character,  talking of who connections the series was created by Robert Stewart Banks who wrote stories for 4th Doctor Tom Baker and Graeme Harper also directed on Bergerac as well as Doctor Who .This series was unique as it was the first show to film in Jersey and show off  it's beautiful scenery, there are shows that should be left alone in this era of Reboots as you can't recreate that magic that made those work and with Bergerac now getting the treatment it should be left alone.I recommend getting the original show to watch and see the charm and beauty of what made this show special and how John Nettles made Jim Bergerac iconic and a hard act to follow so really shouldn't be attempted.So if you want to see how John Nettles got to Midsummer than watch him as Bergerac to see him hone his detective skills.

    Brilliant detective show mostly set in Jersey
  

*by M***T on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 26 October 2013*

This BBC detective series is just brilliant, and as far as I know I think Bergerac might have been the first detective show to have been set in Jersey (I could be wrong about that, of course). The show centred on Jim Bergerac (played by John Nettles), a Detective Sergeant based at Le Bureau des Étrangers ("The Foreigners' Office", a fictional department for dealing with non-Jersey residents), part of the States of Jersey Police.Bergerac ran for nine series consisting of 87 episodes, including Christmas specials, from 1981 to 1991 and was created by producer Robert Banks Stewart, after another of his popular detective series Shoestring, starring Trevor Eve, came to an abrupt end. The BBC wanted a series to replace the popular Shoestring, and Bergerac was thus created. The blend of holiday locations, the island's tax exile millionaire populace (including Bergerac's former father-in-law Charlie Hungerford, played by the late Terence Alexander) and, of course, some unsavoury criminals, proved a massive hit with viewers.I first saw Bergerac on a repeated run on the cable channel UK Gold (now called G.O.L.D. as that channel is dedicated to just repeating sitcoms and sketch shows these days) back in around 1999 or 2000 (I can't remember for sure), and thought it was great. A few years later I watched it again on another cable channel, Alibi, and still enjoyed the show. So because of that, I decided to buy this complete box set and enjoyed watching this series again and it stands the test of time very well. Very highly recommended.

    The antidote to butchered TV repeats - highly recommended
  

*by J***K on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 3 March 2014*

Reading other reviews here, what comes over strongly is the affection and regard in which the series Bergerac is held, and I would certainly endorse that, as it is wonderfully nostalgic and watchable over and over again, unlike lots of other series of the time.  Having seen several episodes recently on various Freeview channels, I wasn't sure that the boxset was totally necessary, but I am very glad to have purchased it.Seeing the full episodes it is easy to see just how hacked about the current TV-repeated versions are (the BBC can't even be bothered to show all episodes in a series based on current daytime showings on BBC2), and comparing the first ever episode with the chopped-down version that aired last week on TV it is clear that watching the restored DVD versions is way more enjoyable.John Nettles really develops the role as the series developed, and even though the latter episodes lost their way and were occasionally quite weak, there is still enjoyment to be had from seeing how the whole series developed over its lifecycle.  Particularly enjoyable is the changing character of Hungerford - played by the excellent Terence Alexander - from rather brusque, unpleasant ex-father-in-law in the opening series, to a rather more lovable, gentler soul as the series progressed.All in all, recommended without reservation.  Anyone else out there currently enduring the haphazard TV repeats as a way of enjoying the series and wondering whether the purchase is worth it - as I was - should simply go for it.  Neatly packaged, restored running times, and including all episodes plus never-shown-again Christmas specials - a treat awaits.
