During the first season, Blake had an ally in Constable Daniel Parks (Rick Donald); in the second season that position is taken by Senior Constable Charlie Davis (Charlie Cousins). Then there is additional support from his insightful housekeeper Jean Beazley (Nadine Garner) ; lodger and district nurse Mattie O'Brien (Cate Wolfe) ; and assist. ME Alice Harvey (Belinda McClory).
Ballarat seems to be the Australian equivalent of Cabot Cove, Maine in that it has a pretty murderous population. One of the things I enjoy about the series is the development and growth of the principal cast members. We learn a little more about each with every new episode. The mysteries are pretty good but the setting is somewhat limited to the obviously historical buildings available. This is not any real distraction but rather gives the series a feeling of reality.
Dr. Blake is somewhat a character of flaws which we are given to understand are a result of his war years. He drinks too much, jumps to the occasional wrong conclusion too quickly, and can rub the town's important people the wrong way which can have consequences for both himself and his friends. Indeed at the end of season two Chief Supt. Matthew Lawson is sent off for "political" reasons and is replaced by Acting Supt. Doug Ashby, who clearly has no admiration or respect for his Medical Examiner.
There is a lot to like with this series and I look forward to watching series three which I have ordered from Australia, and I understand a fourth series has been commissioned.
His goal is to find the truth in each murder. His allies are of strong character and are fiercely loyal. In addition to being a police surgeon, he has his own medical practice in which he exhibits
much skill and genuine compassion for his patients. The casting and acting are superior! This
series leaves you hugering for more!

one of the discs broke up for a short time. then, another broke up for a longer time , all those little colored squares showing and it
took me quite a time to get it going again without going back and playing this disc from the start again with the risk of it doing the
same thing again, it missed part of the story. I enjoyed the balance of the discs but I wonder when you say brand new and sealed
what you actually mean, I enjoyed the rest of the disc Season 1, it is just the type of stories I enjoy, will comment on Season 3 when
I have viewed same. Elisabeth.
The rest of the cast is quite good and do a good job of adding to the story without being overdone.
As for the setting, it seems rather unique. I love the cars. I love the manner.
I also think the background music is well done.
If you have never seen it, it is definitely worth watching.
