peter-neilen Well what can i say, good cast, stories are OK and the surroundings nice and the diversity of cases they handle in that town, very nice. I can only say on this one watch it ! If you see what Peter Kingdom has to endure with family, friends , cases i would have liked more seasons of it then the 3 now. Better then a lot of series i have seen, you just want to know what will happen the next one. We enjoyed the series and the sudden ending of season 3 was irritating because you want to know ,what will happen next. Maybe there can be a new series with the same players or based upon this series. This one is worth looking at !!!! So let your voice be known in the reviews so we might get some more of this !

purrlgurrl Yes, it's just a fairy tale about a solicitor in a picturesque British market town, his wacky family, and equally eccentric clients and fellow townsmen, but I totally fell in love with it. Sadly, it only ran three years before being canceled for being costly to produce, but at least we have those three years. I recently watched it on Netflix and had a difficult time getting through the last two episodes. I kept pausing the streaming because I didn't want to get to the end of the series. Stephen Fry is simply wonderful as Peter Kingdom, but so is the rest of the cast in their roles as family, colleagues, and clients. This show is such a charmer, you might well fall in love with it too.

Robert Baumann There are only 18 episodes of this series. I am a bit disappointed with that as the last episode ends with an unresolved cliffhanger. I doubt they are going to go back and add to the series so there are some unknowns that we are left with. :( That being said, the acting is fine and the stories told are refreshingly British. It is a great alternative to USA network television. Those reviewers here who found some of the characters a bit grating are right, but I think that is just a device used to make the Fry character appear patient. They did mellow out Mr. Snegg as the series went on. I guess if you like Doc Martin you'll enjoy Kingdom. The opening sky-high camera shots show how beautiful the scenery is.

walsh-22 I am still a new viewer to Kingdom, my Dad was the fan of the show and I happened to watch an episode of it and have been hooked ever since.One of the highlights of the show is the brilliant cast headed by the wonderful and hugely talented Stephen Fry (Peter Kingdom). He is the heart of the show with an amazing cast Karl Davies (Lyle, Peter's partner in the law practice), Celia Imrie (Gloria, Peter's secretary), Hermione Norris (Beatrice, Peter's sister), Tony Slattery (Sidney Snell, a client of Peter's), and Phyllida Law (Auriel, Peter's aunt).Another highlight is the beautiful setting of the series, Norfolk is so lovely and it is nice to see a lot more of our lovely countryside that is not always shown in modern series.Although there are some dark elements to it, being that at the start of the series, Peter thought his brother Simon was dead and then later in the second series he was killed off, it is still lighter than other programmes on TV and it is nice to get away from the grittiness of the world and watch a series that is cosy and entertaining. It is not so fluffy that it doesn't cover relevant issues but has the right blend of light and shade to the stories so people are not bogged down by the issues too much. I hope there will be more series of the show as it is a very enjoyable and warm programme to watch.
