Product DescriptionHow would the modern face of policing cope in the land of The Sweeney? That's the question posed by Life on Mars, as DI Sam Tyler (John Simm) a modern cop transported back to 1973 after a nasty car accident. There, he finds himself dealing with the significantly rougher attitudes and behaviours of "old-school" British policing, as exemplified by his new boss, DCI Gene Hunt (Philip Glenister). It's a fish-out-of-water story, as Tyler attempts to teach his new colleagues some very modern methods, while attempting to get used to sheepskin jackets, wide lapels and man-made fibres. This first series of the hugely successful BBC programme sets the scene and introduces the characters that make up Tyler's new world, but stumbles a bit by trying too hard to explain exactly how he got there (the "coma" subplot just gets in the way). Life on Mars is at its best when Glenister is on screen--he's bigoted, chauvinistic and aggressive, and goes through each episode alternately bellowing or scowling. But he's a product of his times, and in his heart, all he wants is to catch the bad guys. For Tyler, it's all about the means, while for Hunt it's all about the ends. They may not like each other much, but their on-screen chemistry is undeniable, and just one of the things that make this excellent series so watchable. --Ted Kord Video TrailerClick the play button below the trailer image to begin playing the Life On Mars : Complete BBC Series 1 [2006] trailer video.

THE ABSOLUTE BEST MINI-SERIES EVER. The title says it all.Anyone who,at the end of the series,does not want it to go on and on does not appreciate brilliant drama.If only the rest of the world could get within miles of the Poms when it comes to television drama.I forgive you for borrowing the Ashes in 2005 and putting up such a pathetic fight for them in 2006-2007.But then again,may you forever keep on giving us such brilliant dramatic films,and awful cricket teams. darwinian One of the best new shows I have seen in many, many years. As someone who joined a law enforcement agency in 1974 it brought back many old memories of the days before mobile phones, computers and the other rubbish we're loaded with these days. Great script, great acting and the music is a peach. Only thing missing of my memories of England in the 70's is - not enough muck. Everything looked too clean - probably too hard to re-create. BRILLIANT, NOT TO BE MISSED BRILLIANT One of the best tv series of the past number of years. Fantastic writing and acting - gripping stuff. Everything of the 70's was spot on - I remember them well and the casting for Gene Hunt and Sam Tyler was spot on - buy it and watch it - you will not be disappointed. FANTASTIC STUFF Fantastic Absolutely fantastic series. Gripping story, intelligently written and with some wonderful dry humour. Can't think of anything bad. Well done to everyone involved. Life on Mars Complete BBC Series 1 & 2 This has been the best television cop show for ages. The way Sam Tyler was transported back to 1973 was with some brilliant writing and excellent casting of John Simm and Philip Glenister. I have never laughed so much at Gene Hunt's "one liners" and sexist comments. The storylines and acting have proved that yet again the BBC have come up with the goods. Really looking forward to the sequal in Ashes to Ashes. Well done to all involved.
