WHAT’S IT ABOUT THEN?

The Tec with the Tache returns to DVD for the third time as season three is released by Universal, Ex Vietnam Veteran Thomas Magnum tackled his cases as a private investigator in idyllic Hawaii. Magnum was also responsible for looking after the luxury 

estate of the never seen Robin and Magnum worked in conjunction with Master's fastidious British butler Higgins. Also heavily involved are Magnum's best friends TC a helicopter pilot and bar owner Rick, both had been in Vietnam with Magnum and its their experiences together during the war that opens up the third season with the dramatic and exciting feature length "Did You See The Sunrise" this sees the trio having to tangle with an old Colonel who is out to kill them. 

One of the really good things about the show is the way it is happy to play with the conventions of the genre and offer up surprises such as the episode Flashback which sees Magnum somehow trapped in the year 1936; Also this season features a great cross over with fellow detective series Simon and Simon (now there's another great series deserving of a DVD release and hopefully sometime soon) (the

 

conclusion to the story featured on the Simon and Simon show (this was actually included on the season one Magnum box set), throw in such delights as the episode Black on White which sees Higgins and Magnum quarantined together because it is feared they have been exposed to a deadly virus and Faith and Begorrah which even features a cameo from series creator Donald P Belissario as a hotel desk clerk and you have quite easily the best season of Magnum yet. Don't miss it. 

ANY SPECIAL FEATURES?

The only extra is a bonus episode of the show from season four called Letter to a Duchess.
