Editorial Reviews

Product Description
In the tradition of its other fine historical dramatic series, like Robin Hood, William Tell and Sir Lancelot, TMG proudly brings you The Buccaneers, based on the true story of England's attempt to destroy the Caribbean pirate's stranglehold on shipping routes in the New World. Produced in England at the famed Nettlefold Studio sound stages in Walton-on-Thames, The Buccaneers features the noted British actor Robert Shaw (Jaws, A Man For All Seasons) as Captain Dan Tempest, a pardoned ex-pirate, and Peter Hammond (The Avengers) as Lt. Beamish, the Crown-appointed deputy governor of the pirate-infested island of New Providence, in the Bahamas. In true swashbuckling tradition, Tempest and his former pirate crew of his swift corsair, The Sultana, take on the Spanish privateers ravaging the Caribbean. Receiving a pardon from the King in return for giving up a life of piracy, Tempest and his stalwarts confront the privateers on the high seas of the Spanish Main. Swordplay abounds, as the forces of the Crown struggle to rid the New World of pirates, the likes of Blackbeard, a constant irritant to Captain Tempest and a recurring villain in the series. Many of Britain's finest actors of the time took part in the series, including Paul Hansard, Edwin Richfield, Alec Clunes, Neil Hallett and Brian Rawlinson. The 30 episodes in this 3 DVD set are among the best of The Buccaneers, featuring the daring adventure and exciting exploits of Captain Tempest and his not-always-so-merry crew!

3.0 out of 5 stars Incomplete Collection, March 21, 2009
By Frank Kowal III (Pasadena, CA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This is just a word of friendly warning. This collection apparently has 30 episodes of the series. There is another collection available for just about the same price that has all 39.

The series itself is fun. I'm about halfway through and am really enjoying it. Each episode tells a self-contained story, but there are plot threads that carry over from episode to episode (the fort is in ruins in one episode, then they rebuild it in another, etc). There's a lot of fighting but no real bloodshed. Something that kids and adults can both enjoy.
