The dark psychological drama starring Idris Elba as John Luther, the near-genius detective struggling with his own demons, returns to DVD with two distinctive, thrilling crime stories. Luther Series 2 will be available from 27th June 2011 from 2entertain.
Devastated by the brutal murder of his wife, John Luther returns to policing in a different world where he spends his time working on cold cases. With his old unit gone he begins working in the newly created Serious and Serial unit. Headed by former police complaints officer Martin Schenk, its Luther's chance for a fresh start, but is it one he really wants?
Luther quickly gathers together his team, rescuing his old partner Detective Justin Ripley from career oblivion. Joining them is ambitious Detective Erin Gray who's heard of Luther's reputation, seen what's happened to Ripley and doesn't want her own job prospects tarnished in the same way.
It's not long before they're dealing with their first case. A masked man wanders the streets of London, carrying out ritualistic murders in historic locations - Smithfield, Petticoat Lane... He's taking Luther on a tour through the narrow alleyways and back streets of the city, using murders to mark out his territory and working up to one final masterpiece...
Crackling with energy, beautifully shot and with snappy, clever dialogue, this series sees Luther take bigger risks and face even darker challenges.
