The box of tricks no mystery geek would be without.
Jonathan Creek invents spectacular stage stunts using his brilliant analytical mind that can crack the trickiest of puzzles. He is a bit of a nerd but also a bit of a quick-witted genius. No showman, he lurks backstage while his boss Adam Klaus basks in the limelight. But when Jonathan meets unorthodox crime journalist Maddy Magellan, she soon discovers another use for his extraordinary talent - solving murder mysteries by magic. Written by David Renwick (ONE FOOT IN THE GRAVE) and starring Alan Davies (Q.I.), Caroline Quentin (Blue Murder), Julia Sawalha (ABSOLUTELY FABULOUS), Sheridan Smith (GAVIN AND STACEY) and Sarah Alexander (GREEN WING), the BAFTA winning JONATHAN CREEK presents puzzles and tackles mysteries by fusing hard evidence with illusion and intellect. The Limited Edition set includes all five series of Jonathan Creek plus 5 feature-length specials collected together for the first time. With an all-star guest cast featuring Adrian Edmondson and Rik Mayall (BOTTOM), Colin Baker (DOCTOR WHO), Anthony Head (BUFFY, THE VAMPIRE SLAYER), John Bluthall (THE VICAR OF DIBLEY), Nigel Planer (THE YOUNG ONES), Annette Crosbie (ONE FOOT IN THE GRAVE), Peter Davison (DOCTOR WHO), Griff Rhys-Jones (ALAS SMITH & JONES), Bill Bailey and Tamsin Greig (BLACK BOOKS), Frances Matthews (PAUL TEMPLE), Brian Murphy (GEORGE AND MILDRED) and Joanna Lumley (ABSOLUTELY FABULOUS) plus special features including audio commentaries, behind the scenes footage, deleted scenes, a brand new interview with Alan Davies and more. 13 DVD SET includes all uncut 26 episodes from series one to five plus specials Black Canary, Satan's Chimney, The Grinning Man, The Judas Tree and The Clue of the Savant's Thumb.
