Excellent series with a great score but why no CD? January 3, 2009
As others have said this is an excellent series and well worth getting on DVD.
It has a wonderful musical score by Murray Gold that the BBC decided not to release on CD. That is a real shame.
Please BBC release Murray Gold's Casanova music on CD
Dishy David Tennant September 17, 2008
This is a hugely enjoyable, stylish, witty retelling of the Casanova story. As it was written by Russel T Davies it goes without saying that the script is fabulous and the story cracks along at a wonderful pace. David Tennant is utterly faultless as a funny, likeable and very human Casanova, quite unlike the roistering, wham-bam beefcake image of Casanova we've been used to. A total triumph. You must buy this.
Fantastic period drama, fantastic acting - all very watchable August 2, 2008
I loved Casanova when it was on BBC and had to get the DVD set to relive it. The opening theme music is fab and the whole colour and spectacle are wonderful.
There is some fab acting - I wasn't a David Tennant fan before this but certainly was afterwards! Peter O'Toole is wonderful (if slightly creepy) as the older Casanova.
Beautiful. Fun. Unmissable. June 3, 2008
Russell T Davies writing. David Tennant and Peter O'Toole acting. What more persuasion do you need? One of the most uplifting, dazzling and colourful television dramas ever made, but it pulls at the heartstrings too. Pretty much impossible to fault!
 More heartless, witless Tripe by Russell T Davies February 20, 2008

I really went into this wanting to like it, but when I realized he was the writer I wasn't expecting much, and that's what I got. I LOVE the cast, and the original diaries this is based upon. OTHER THAN THAT, it was nausiating fluff with no nudity, no substance and no interest for me anyway. Maybe I'm just bias from watching the BRILLIANT Fellini version or the more acurate Dennis Potter TV movie from 1972 which had MUCH more sex, nudity, violence heart, wit and substance than this 30 years later.
