Plus, I have my own view on how the characters look and the actors don't match. These are not the correct faces!  There are several actors whom I cannot detach so to speak from their own personality. When I see Brannagh it doesn't matter who he plays, it is him dressed up but still Brannagh. He is not credible. I know he's good and all Shakespeare and all that but it is him no matter what the role.

That's a shame.
I may rent the first one, Sidetracked, and see how I get on with that before proceeding. I was going to get the boxset on Blu-Ray. Best to test it out first.
