WIN: George Gently Complete Box Set

December 13, 2017 by Michelle 50 Comments

It’s nearly Christmas and here at Beauty and Lace we would love to share the festive cheer. Thanks to Acorn Media we will be selecting one lucky reader to win a box set of the COMPLETE George Gently collection, series 1-8; which includes the shocking series finale.

George Gently is a long running British crime drama that has kept fans entertained for years, now it is all here in one place. This 16 disc collection includes every episode from Series 1 to the final Series 8.

 

The series is set in England in the 1960s-1970s and it is a time of great change in the world. Chief Inspector George Gently, played by Martin Shaw, is one of detective fiction’s unsung heroes. His passionate investigations reveal the dark underbelly of society.

Chief Inspector George Gently is a policeman with a strong sense of justice. His ambitious and undisciplined sidekick is Sergeant John Bacchus, played by Lee Ingleby, who is overawed as well as thrilled to be working for the legendary detective.

The George Gently Collection is available in-store and online from December 13th.

RRP: $149.95

About Michelle

My blurb went missing... so now I have to bring you a new one. One that is a little broader too.
I devour books, vampires and supernatural creatures are my genre of choice but over the past couple of years I have broadened my horizons considerably.
I inhale music, hair metal that satisfies my inner bogan is where my musical passion lies, but again I've been exposed to lots of different music I wouldn't normally listen to and have broadened those horizons also.

In a nutshell - I love to write! I love interacting with a diverse range of artists to bring you interviews.
Perhaps we were perfect before - I LOVE WORDS! Reading, writing, speaking, listening - if it's got words I'm there!

    My mum is a really big fan of English dramas. And since Dad died, having served in the NSW Police Force for 37 years, she yearns for police dramas. I think it makes her feel closer to Dad even though he’s no longer with us.

    This one definitely goes to the hubby. We love George Gently – and we remember Martin Shaw in “The Professionals” back in the 1970s. He was Bodie or Doyle – we can never remember! The final episode was gut-wrenching and would love to go back to the beginning to see all the fashion and the cars and life without mobile phones!

    I would share this with my wonderful cousin Maurissa. She absolutely loves this show, and after a lousy 18 months during which both her parents (my aunt and uncle) died suddenly,, one friend was killed in a road traffic accident and 3 friends died of cancer I think she deserves to have something nice happen. Thank you for the opportunity.

    My husband – we don’t find many TV shows that we both enjoy, but this sounds like it might be one. A good crime drama for me, and the British sensibility – with less overt violence than some dramas – for my husband. The social history aspects would interest us both.

    And the most important thing: with eight seasons, that’s a lot of snuggling on the couch when the kids are in bed!

    I would just love this set of George Gently to share with my husband who also enjoys this series. We have seen a few of the programs from this series but not all. We enjoy many of the british dramas as I was brought up in England and my husband has visited there so we can relate to many of the settings in these programs. We especially enjoy Martin Shaw – he is a fantastic actor!! There are just not enough of programs like this anymore.

    My Mum is a fan, but Martin Shaw was my first crush when I saw him in The Professionals (how did he walk/run is such tight jeans, lol) and those curls, swoon. I’ve been a fan ever since and be brings George Gently to life with skill and flair. I’d be super happy just to sit back and enjoy George Gently by myself, but my mum loves him too and it’s a great way for us to bond and spend time together. Thanks.

    I can think of nothing better than being able to watch this series from beginning to end. I have seen a few episodes and I would really enjoy being able to continue from one episode to the next, not having to wait until next week. It might result in some late nights though – but hey who cares? He is gorgeous!!!

    My mother absolutely loves George Gently. Being English, the locations of the filming bring back memories for her plus the quality of the acting and show.please her….which is something not many programs do these days! Her short term memory is disappearing, so having visual triggers for her long term memories is pleases her and gets her talking about things she may not have told the family.
