A very engrossing series
By a customer from Norwich, England , 03 Jun 2005[Highly rated reviewer]
We have been very impressed with The Jury. Not really knowing what to expect, we started watching this television series with an open mind, but were soon completely engrossed. The plot follows a group of jurors as they sit on a difficult murder case involving a young Sikh boy accused of murdering a school fellow. Issues of racism, bullying and antagonism arise in the ensuing drama.
This is a fast paced, clever, well-written and well-acted TV drama, better than most films you're likely to see. The cast consists of such excellent actors as Anthony Sher, Derek Jakobi and Gerard Butler (of Phantom Of The Opera fame) and can't be faulted. I really do recommend this as a great Saturday night in!- Was this review helpful to you?

(9)Ultimately disappointing TV series...
By a customer from Newmarket , 03 Dec 2008For a TV series (spread over two discs of six episodes and approaching four and a half hours) with a truly all-star British cast and a storyline involving a trial, bullying, race relations and a vicious murder, it starts out well and then falls flat on its face in a surprisingly rushed ending.
It's not helped by the 'disaster movie' cliche of all the main jurors having problems of their own, which rather clouds the main story, and an anticipated twist that never happens.
Ultimately disappointing, it would have worked better as a 'Midsommer Murder' where you got find out what really happened...- Was this review helpful to you?

Guilty as charged...of being a superb quality drama!..more please!!
By a customer from UK , 16 Nov 2006Superb!
Inspired casting, great storyline, lots of twists and turns. We have one more episode to go and I really can't make up my mind how it is all going to end!!
What can I say, if you have a decent script and superb players then what you end up with is a high quality drama that leaves you wanting more.
I rest my case!!- Was this review helpful to you?

Starts out well...
By Darth Egregious from London , 16 Dec 2005... which is why I gave this an initial rating of 4 stars. I thought for a TV series it had a good cast who did well in developing characters and building tension. However, it turns out to be a bit of a disapointment in the end. On the second disc it throws it all away with an boringly predictable ending and a sad loss of pace.- Was this review helpful to you?
