BBC 6 Stars, Judge John Deed 8 Stars.

I'm an avid fan but the BBC left the viewer up in the air with the end of Series 6.

It may have been planned to cover comeuppances to a new series, but sadly no further episodes were produced.

I'm sure most fans will have wanted to see these 4 characters get what's coming to them; Sir Ian Rochester.

His scheming sidekick, Laurence James.

Corrupt Neil Haughton MP Corrupt Sir Tim Listfield In addition, we never found out what happened to Rose Hussein (Sylvia Sims...Series 5) she was nabbed by the FBI with the complicity of the Home Secretary and spirited off to the USA.

I was looking forward to this series based on the advanced publicity and main cast members, however, after watching all 8 episodes on BBC iplayer, I have only awarded 4 stars and that is being generous.

1 It's historically inaccurate.

2 Filmed in Iceland (and it shows) they've used Icelandic Horses which are far smaller than the European horses and Chargers of the day.

3 Costumes aren't accurate.

4 Sound quality leaves a lot to be desired.

I'm afraid if I add more niggles, I may have to award it 3 stars.

This is a typical Channel 4 rubbish show. I've watched Episodes 1 & 2 in full and refuse to waste any more of my time on episodes 3-6.

The common issues have been highlighted elsewhere so I won't bore you with duplications.

Six one hour episodes equates to 4 hours maximum programme time.

That's 4 hours of your life wasted.
