Sample included

On the one hand you have the blurb:

It's been 15 years but Minder is back...


The iconic 80s television show, Minder is given a 00's update 

starring Shane Richie as Archie and Lex Shrapnel as Jamie. 

This series is not a remake, but a new show with all the 

heart and wit of the original that's shot through with 

new boldness, glamour and humour.


On the other you have reviews on amazon like this:

I'm sorry but this new remake of the classic series "Minder" is a HUGE mistake. Whoever thought of casting the lame Shane Richie in the place of the great George Cole needs their head examining. George Cole created a truly iconic character in 'wheeler dealer' Arthur Daley so to try to replace him in this new version with the cheesy Shane Richie is frankly ludicrous. 


Nobody could match possibly match George Cole's inspired and hilarious portrayal but if Channel Five were so insistant on going ahead with this ill advised remake then I think a 'real' experienced actor like former "Quadrophenia" star Phil Daniels would have been a MUCH better choice for it instead as I'm convinced he would have made something of the role. As it is I hope this series ends up being the abysmal flop it deserves to be. 


So do yourselves a favour. Avoid this rubbish and buy the original series on DVD instead. 


But anyway

As the previous uploader renamed these scene rips not once but twice, I've decided to reload the torrent with the correct names and make it free. So you can decide for yourself how good or bad it is....

The difference in the file names isn't much, but it's enough to stop other users thinking the files they may already are not the same, and prevent them from helping to seed. Renaming scene files has always been against thebox rules.
