Derrick on DVD


I see some of the UK criminal series, i.e. Morse and Frost, have been released on DVD with all episodes. I wonder if anybody knows whether something similar is planned with Derrick. I know there are 10 episodes or so already on DVD, but I would like to see more, much more.

They are releasing a six episode collection now.

but were can one buy this? cant find it on the net. also are they subtitled?

reply

Getting the 70s episodes on dvd would be brilliant. Must be released in Germany?

I'd love to see this on DVD too. 'Inspector Rex' is good, but just not a patch on Derrick. I cannot find any information about DVD releases on the web. If anyone knows where they can be found, please let me know!

reply

'Inspektor Rex' is the cheesy circus of attempting to make a viennese case revolve around a bloody dog. Always a strain for the scriptwriters.

by contrast, Derrick is quality. It is the German 'Columbo' of its generation, and so deeply, solidly middle class German in its approach to wrongdoing that it as much a 'krimi' or crime series as much as a national psychological or cultural study.

I would love to get Derrick with English subtitles too!!!

Sorry to hear that Horst Tappert died.
He was a great age and an intriguing actor and our family loved this quirky original series very much.

Yes. Sad news. Horst Tappert RIP. :(

Hopefully there will be a DVD release of all the 281 episodes in his memory..the most gigantic box set ever..lol..it's good to dream I guess. :)

It is a great show and yes I hope they get a subtitled full set out one day. I imagine it would sell very well... best wishes to you from downunda Giallo and happy TV viewing...regards David
