As seen on PBS Mystery!Includes Previously Unreleased Episodes Waxwork and AbracadaverFrom the vulgar brothels of London's fogbound streets to the respectable royal apartments of Windsor Castle, Sergeant Cribb maintains a level head and a wry sense of humour to unravel complex crimes in Queen Victoria's England. A detective of Scotland Yard's newly formed Criminal Investigation Department, Cribb receives little support for his efforts from his superiors. Wearing his trademark bowler hat and squeaky boots, Cribb relies on his own shrewdness and the plodding assistance of Constable Thackeray to expose the vile deeds of Victorian criminals.

Another top-notch crime series from Britain
An excellent crime series from Britain which I would recommend to everyone who is a fan of this genre, as I am. Beautifully directedand acted, and set in the Victorian era, all elements contribute to its evocative atmosphere. If you love atmospheric crime drama, this is for you.Gerard Sibbritt

Sgt Cribb
Sgt Cribb is an interesting series. The Chief Inspector is too much a comic character, and Constable Thackeray too much of a buffoon.Cribb should have been promoted to Inspector by now. The produjction suffers when compared to the Murdoch Mysteries.Still, enjoyable to watch on a one-time basis.

This Sergeant is a winner
If you, as I, enjoy British Victorian era mysteries you can't go wrong with Sergeant Cribb. The picture and sound quality are excellent, the stories very entertaiing and the Victorian/Edwardian era faithfully re-created. Plus, Alan Dobie is delightful as the often interfered with, but never foiled Cribb. I only wish the series had run longer.

Low production quality and slow-moving stories
The audio quality makes it difficult to understand the characters sometimes, and the video quality makes you wonder if it was shot before WWII.The plots are interesting, but the stories tend to unfold so slowly that I expect they'd lose many audience members. The main character is well-developed, but his assistant is treated like a bumbling lackey, and his boss is the stereotypical incompetent self-centered empty suit. This formula seems very familiar for many British mystery series, though often the boss or the assistant will have some or many redeeming qualities.In summary, I don't mind watching this series, but find it below average.

Don't order this!
The story was to quick and acting contrived. I would not recommend this to anyone as it was a big disappointment!

Not comparable to most British mysteries
Very poor compared to usual British mysteries. Limited camera angles, stories lack depth, characters not interesting. Would not have ordered had I viewed just one show.

Great Series
This is another great British series. It has mystery and some light comedy. The acting is very good, and so are the stories. Even though Sergeant Cribb is different than Sherlock Holmes, he is just as enjoyable to watch.
