These are original and factory sealed. They are Region 2 PAL and play beautifully on modern Multi-region DVD players. DVD FEATURES: Description: Nicholas Ball stars in his best-known role as a tough, charismatic private detective in this hit Thames series, first aired in the late 1970s and created by journalist and novelist Gordon Williams, and future England coach Terry Venables. Hazell paid homage to classic film noir while boasting rounded characterisations, sparkling Cockney dialogue and highly credible action scenes, all set in the kind of seedy London locations that would be revisited in Minder - the series created by screenwriter Leon Griffiths following his work on Hazell; other high-profile writers here include Trevor Preston (The Sweeney) and author Richard Harris (A Touch of Frost). Following the curtailment of his police career after an injury and subsequent slide into alcoholism, the newly reformed James Hazell sets himself up as a private eye. Utterly ruthless when he needs to be, Hazell is also blessed with a breezy charm, effortless style, robust sense of humour and the ability to think on his feet - vital when tackling blackmail, missing persons cases, organised crime, and the drugs trade... or dour Scottish CID adversary ‘Choc’ Minty (played to perfection by Roddy McMillan). Desmond McNamara stars as Hazell’s cousin and assistant Tel, with Barbara Young as landlady and sometime employer Dot - one of British TV’s first regular gay characters; a memorably raunchy theme, composed by Roxy Music’s Andy Mackay, provided a Top 40 hit for blues/rock singer Maggie Bell.

Hello :-) IMPORTANT DVD INFORMATION FOR MY US & CANADIAN CUSTOMERS: As per the auction these are Europe Region 2 DVDs (US/Canada are Region 1) and you need a multi-regional (multi-zone) DVD player to play them! BUT don't panic just yet :-) Many DVD players are easy to unlock. Let me know the brand and model number of your DVD player so I see if there is a simple unlock code for your player. Many of my US/Canadian customers chose to play or copy these DVDs on a PC before playing them. I also see there are many economical Multi Region DVD players on EBay ($35-50). Just do a search if you wish. It seems a shame to let go of this great DVD set. Cheers :-)
