Neverwhere - The Complete Series

On his way to dinner with his fiance, Richard Mayhew sees a wounded girl on the sidewalk, and his efforts to help her will end the life he knows. The next morning he is a cipher, erased from existence and consigned to a subterranean world of danger and shadows.

One of the most acclaimed fantasy novels in recent years, Neverwhere was originally a six-part BBC television series. Rarely seen since its initial broadcast, this visionary tale was the first story written directly for the screen by Neil Gaiman, the prolific genius behind DC Comics' The Sandman series and the best-selling novel American Gods.

    Forget the effects feel the quality

    Like all uk tv its made on the cheap, but in this case with fantastic depth of imagination. its not just for your comic book geek. It's for anybody that has been haunted by dark dreams. I fear a hollywood remake that might rob the story of its soul.

    Worth a watch

    If only to have the nostalgic recollection of what BBC special effects used to look like before Dr Who upped the ante!

    Seriously though, this is a great watch if you like Neil Gaiman stuff, although I must admit I preferred the book... with the exception that the Marquis was much better on the small screen than in my imagination!
