Lovejoy - 'Series 6' and 'The Complete Collection' DVDs Announced!

Golden Globe winner Ian McShane (Deadwood) exudes rakish charm as Lovejoy, "the James Bond of antiques dealers" (The New York Times), in this cult-favorite British mystery series.

In the sixth and final series of Lovejoy, Ian McShane's (Deadwood) raffish antiques dealer may have finally found some professional and personal stability. But if the cutthroat, underhanded world of antiquities has taught him anything, it's that looks can be very deceiving. Spirited auctioneer Charlotte Cavendish (Caroline Langrishe, Judge John Deed) finally starts to take Lovejoy's romantic overtures seriously. But doing so may put her in grave danger when a vengeful murderer comes to settle a score with Lovejoy. Tinker (Dudley Sutton, The Beiderbecke Connection) and Beth (Diane Parish, EastEnders) aren't immune to the trade's drawbacks either, as they are constantly at odds with thieves, the police, and each other. Thanks to Lovejoy's years of experience, he stands to benefit from some of the rarest, most valuable antiques he's ever encountered. But to do so, he'll have to face a lifetime's worth of enemies at every turn.

ALSO, in The Complete Collection, despite his knack for spotting rare finds among rubbish, Lovejoy can't seem to stay out of trouble, often getting snared in the underbelly of the antiques industry. His pals Eric (Chris Jury, The Big Game), Tinker (Dudley Sutton, The Beiderbecke Connection), and the lovely Lady Jane (Phyllis Logan, Downton Abbey) are there to help him out-but sometimes get him into even more scrapes. Later, Lovejoy spars with attractive auctioneer Charlotte (Caroline Langrishe, Judge John Deed) and welcomes Tinker's new assistant, Beth (Diane Parish, EastEnders), to their ragtag team. This collection of the show's complete six series features exceptional guest stars, including John Gielgud (Arthur), Joanna Lumley (Absolutely Fabulous), Tom Wilkinson (Michael Clayton), Michael Kitchen (Foyle's War), Martin Clunes (Doc Martin), Richard Griffiths (Harry Potter films), Pete Postlethwaite (Inception), Julian Glover (Game of Thrones), James Nesbitt (The Hobbit trilogy), and Minnie Driver (Good Will Hunting). BONUS Christmas special The Prague Sun (97 min.)
