Cop Shop - Volume 03

Product Review (submitted on 27 December 2017):

Cop Shop is truly iconic Aussie TV and god bless Crawfords for finally releasing it. The character development in this box set is superb (especially Gil Tucker as Sgt Roy Baker who practically steals the show on some of the later episodes). Most of all, Cop Shop perfectly captures the zeitgeist of the Malcolm Fraser era and gives us a unique glimpse into that 'old Australia' of the '70s- with a wink and a nudge from detective JJ of course. Guest roles include a young Shane Bourne, Stefan Dennis, the ever slithery, smooth- talker Rod Mullinar and Anne Lambert (who played the virginal Miranda in Picnic at Hanging Rock) as Roy Baker's girlfriend. Cop Shopians will love this and salivate Pavlovian-style for the next installment. My DVD player is already booked (excuse the pun!).
