Reckless - part 3 - flynch
How can zip.ca offer this series for rent when it does not have part 3 available?
I watched the first two parts only to be left hanging.
This is a bit uncaring for zip.ca to do this. What possible explanation can they have for not being able to get part 3?Stands the test of time - MMM-
It's hard to believe it has been 10 years since this series aired! I just watched the first episode again;it as refreshing and fun as the first time. It is a touching and very understandable love story, that turns from pathos to comedy to mystery and 'round again.
I may just buy this series.Almost perfect - Zanna
This is one of the best television mini-series ever made. In terms of production values, excellent writing, superb direction and marvelous acting, this is on a par with The West Wing (although a completely different setting and subject matter). In short, it is a wonderful love story, especially appealing to all who have had a delicious love affair with someone who was either much younger or much older than themselves. The first three discs constitute the original series, the fourth is the sequel which is just as good but hilariously funny in addition to being touching. There are few performances to match those given here by Robson Green, Francesa Annis and Michael Kitchen and the supporting characters are all cast brilliantly: special mentions for David Bradley and Daniella Nardini. I cannot imagine the kind of person who would not like Reckless-- if there are any, I don't want to meet them. Reckless is almost perfect. [ With all due respect to MacAskill, the other reveiewer here, this series takes place in Lancashire, not Yorkshire. Robson Green, like his character is a Geordie, from Newcastle in Northumberland, the most northerly county on the east coast of England].
