great followup to season one but it is only 4 episodes. I wanted more at the end of the series. Sometimes the english accent is not easy to understand but I used the cc feature. Still a great buy. Can hardly wait for season 3. Idris Elba is a great actor and the stories are compelling and well written.

Thoroughly enjoyed this series; great acting; great drama. I purchased both 1 & 2 thinking they were season 1 & 2. Discovered, however, they were parts 1 & 2 of the first season. If I hadn't read the small print, I wouldn't have known. I paid in total $85.00 for the 2 parts. Far too expensive, plus the episodes could have been placed on one disk. Downton Abbey was a much better buy. I'll be wiser next time. "caveat emptor"!

Excellent - this second series is also a "must see". The BBC certainly know how to produce fantastic criminal detective shows which keep you glued to the TV to see the outcome. Just as good as series one and I can't wait to see Series 3 later this year.

Superbly realistic with all the tension and suspense of a good mystery set in central/east London. Top class cast and acting, and Idris Elba is unsurpassable.

I Love Luther
I wasn't sure what to expect from Luther Season 2, since Season 1 was so amazing and a "hard act to follow. Read more

Luther 2
We loved the first season of Luther and were looking forward to the second one. Although we enjoyed this season thoroughly we didn't find it quite as engaging as the first. Read more

Perfection
Will most certainly purchase from again; thank you! Product in mint condition as promised! This series is far too under-rated and under-exposed.
