" He's charming, handsome and brilliant and not to be trusted for a second. He's Ian McShane as Lovejoy, the disreputable antiques dealer whose ability to spot a genuine antique at a glance is rivaled only by his rare knack for getting into trouble. Clad in his trademark black leather jacket, teetering on the edge of bankruptcy, Lovejoy scours the countryside in search of valuable antiques and speedy profit. What he usually finds in the seemingly quiet world of antique shops and auctions is trickery, forgery, double-dealing, foul play, and sometimes even murder! But there's no need to worry. This rogue always finds a way to scrounge and scrimp his way out of trouble, conjuring up the most outrageous money-making schemes and swindling even his most loyal allies. With his inimitable charm, sardonic wit, and his trusted aides Tinker Dill, Lady Jane Felsham, and Eric Catchpole, Lovejoy is ready to play any game of deception- and win! Please note: This special sale price applies only to orders placed online, and is NOT applicable to telephone orders."

Customer Rating:
Summary: Some really great British Entertainment!
Comment: I do not know how to describe this show is it a comedy or an adventure or a drama? None the less I can highly recommend this series for those who like some really good light entertainment with an off beat but brillant cast!
Customer Rating:
Summary: What a waste!
Comment: Lovejoy mysteries are the best in cinematography, writing, acting - Where are the other 75 episodes of Lovejoy? Probably sitting in some lawyer's safe. We are lucky to even have the four A&E tapes and we have even asked about him in East Anglia, where many Brits still remember the wonderful hour-long episodes. If only someone could put all of the episodes on tape! We miss him terribly!

Summary: Wit, charm, style and intelligence (plus some derring do)
Comment: First, I really like the reviews I have read about this box set. They seem to come from the sort of people I always knew loved Lovejoy -- intelligent and fun and able to spell correctly. I, too, mourn the passing of Lovejoy from my Monday nights. I don't think there has ever been a show with so many delicate components all mixed together so well. -- This line-up includes the original cast, Lovejoy, Tinker, Eric and Lady Felsham (the later cast was great, too, with Charlotte Cavendish supplying much-needed romance to Lovejoy's life), and they are so well suited to one another and play with obvious affection that it makes this show that much more fun to watch. Honestly, I used to watch the show just for the beautiful country locations, which are used to enormous effect. If this set is still available, do yourself a favor and buy it and bask in one of the most exciting and charming shows England ever produced.
