The Oswald Maximum Security Prison has opened an experimental new ward reserved for especially dangerous criminals. This unit, Emerald City, focuses on rehabilitation, but the world inside is even more corrupt and violent than the mean streets where these inmates come from. Inside the walls there are also two sets of rules, those laid down by the warden and those understood by the racially divided prisoners. This HBO series is full of gritty, violent imagery and deftly handles sensitive issues about the American Justice System. This collection chronicles the first four seasons of the show.DVD Features:Region (unknown)Keep CaseFull Frame - 1.33Box Set

Meeting after a 38-year period of separation, Lionel Hardcastle (Geoffrey Palmer) and Jean Pargeter (Judi Dench) enjoy rekindling their relationship in this affectionate BBC comedy. The couple took a promising stab at romance in 1953, until Lionel was swept away to Korea to assume military duties during the Second World War. As they coincidentally reconvene after Lionel unwittingly hires Jean`s daughter to work for him, much laughter ensues in this family-oriented jaunt through their blossoming relationship. All nine seasons of the show are contained on this release.
