Average Rating: 
Rating:  - Great show, bizarre political correctness
Great action and acting, but just a bizarre fantasy world ideology when it comes to picking villains. (I say this as a Nader voter.) Is the real threat these days Christian terrorists? Israeli agents killing Englishmen? Even more Mossad agents? According to this show it is. Classic case of "Oh no! Mustn't feed stereotypes, must instead choose totally implausible PC villains."
Rating:  - Defective Disc
So how do you go about getting Disc 3 in Season 5 that actually works?
The person I ordered it from looked through all they had--they were all defective. Any suggestions?
Rating: - An exceptional Season
The first two episodes are worth the price of admission alone. Much more engaging and intelligent than the usual American dreck. "24" should learn from this show.
Rating:  - too expensive
The price of this product brings the rating way down. Don't expect the usual 22 shows you get from most usa products. The content of the show is very good! I believe there is only 12 shows and yet you have to pay twice as much. Another ripoff!
Rating: - MI-5 Will Grab You
MI-5 is a gripping look at the world of espionage and protection of the "homeland" (England, in this case). Scenarios are "real-world," often ahead of the headlines. I hope the U.S. Homeland Security/FBI/CIA folks are watching this series to learn some lessons! The writing and acting are top-notch, leaving American TV serious in their dust. There are enough relationships to assure us that the characters are real people, but the situations and challenges of protecting Great Britian from its enemies ... Read More
