This series is adapted from two of Robert Wilson's acclaimed international bestselling Falcon novels: The Blind Man of Seville and The Silent and the Damned. Beautifully shot and hauntingly atmospheric, Falcon is an adrenaline-fuelled drama of sin and redemption.The Blindman of Seville Javier Falcón investigates a series of brutal murders, which lead him to uncover shocking buried truths about his own family history. Written by Stephen Butchard (Five Daughters, Good Cop) and directed by Pete Travis (Vantage Point, Judge Dredd) The Silent and the DamnedThe sudden death of an eminent Sevillian businessman draws Falcón into a dark conspiracy involving corruption and abuse at the highest level, forcing him to make some difficult moral choices. Written by Sarah Phelps (Oliver Twist, Great Expectations), directed by Gabriel Range (Death of a President, I Am Slave).Extra ContentBehind The Scenes Behind The Man Robert Wilson Location Tour desertcart.co.uk Review A four-part crime thriller set in the picturesque settings of Seville, the surroundings of Falcon may be a little different, but the central ingredients are a lot more familiar. The show bills itself as a psychological thriller, which in this case means that there’s a police Chief Inspector, Javier Falcon, with crimes to solve and demons to battle. The basis of Falcon is the writing of author Robert Wilson, and it’s a pair of his crime novels that have been adapted to form the series. They’ve been adapted well, too, with two feature-length cases gathered together in this DVD set. Played with skill and conviction by Martin Csokas, Javier Falcon may be the latest in a series of screwed-up detectives solving crimes on the small screen, but there’s enough character and strong enough material to give the programme some distinction. Granted, you don’t fully shake the feeling of déjà vu in places, but that’s not to the detriment of the entertainment here. Furthermore, the episodes look glorious: the surroundings have been used to optimum effect, and the locations add to the atmosphere of an already-impressive drama. Falcon’s television adventures are certainly off to a good start. --Jon Foster Review: Very good TV series, I assume shown only on Sky. - Thoroughly excellent and absorbing series of 2 long plays - Falcon is a detective in Seville, Spain, so there is the excitement of "somewhere different". Falcon has issues, with his father and his ex-wife, and the writer very cleverly meshes all of this into a murder mystery in the first story, and takes it even further in the second story. You gradually learn more and more about Falcon and his background as well as about the villains. Fans of the TV series The Musketeers will delight in finding "Aramis" Santiago Cabrera in the important role of the Judge. Santi doesn't have nearly as big a part as the actor of Falcon, but his character is the new lover of Falcon's ex which leads to other conflicts. I can't say I was attracted especially to Falcon or his ex since I bought the series to see "Aramis" no matter what the content, but I was delighted with the purchase after seeing the two fine plays. But whoever you want to see in the way of actors, everything is done extremely well. For myself I wish there'd been much more of Santi Cabrera, but he is not meant to be the star so no point in fretting about that! Slight warning - some grim images at times involved with the means of murders. Review: Darkness in sunny Seville - I have just finished watching this and found the first two episodes, in what I hope will be an on-going series, fascinating as well as entertaining. In many ways it reminded me of Zen. (Perhaps if Falcon is successful, Zen could be resurrected for a further series. Fingers crossed!) Both series feature British actors in foreign settings, investigating murders and trying to avoid the political machinations that could impact on the outcomes. Personally, I didn't find the acting wooden and I think the lead - Marton Csokas - has a very expressive face and understated acting style which suited the complex and dark role he played. The series is very much character driven and is not the normal police procedural. The English accents didn't bother me at all - we were, after all, watching a British series set in Spain. If the series had been a Spanish production made for the local market I would have been happy with local actors and subtitles even if it was set in the UK. (Don't we all love exotic locations?) I haven't read the books so I can't make comparisons. But I did enjoy the series, was disappointed that there were only two stories filmed, and am hoping there will be more made in 2013. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B008PEHZOC | | Actors | Emilia Fox, James Floyd, Kerry Fox, Marton Csokas, Santiago Cabrera | | Best Sellers Rank | 72,057 in DVD & Blu-ray ( See Top 100 in DVD & Blu-ray ) 5,738 in Crime (DVD & Blu-ray) 17,015 in Television (DVD & Blu-ray) | | Country of origin | United Kingdom | | Customer reviews | 3.6 3.6 out of 5 stars (98) | | Language | English (Dolby Digital 2.0) | | Manufacturer reference | 5037115355034 | | Media Format | PAL | | Number of discs | 1 | | Package Dimensions | 19 x 13.4 x 1.4 cm; 81.65 g | | Release date | 10 Dec. 2012 | | Run time | 3 hours | | Studio | ITV Studios Home Entertainment | | Subtitles: | English | ## Product Details - **Format:** PAL - **Language:** English - **Runtime:** 3 hours - **Studio:** Carlton ## Images ![Falcon - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/910giIROSgL.jpg) ![Falcon - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/911MBnxEB0L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very good TV series, I assume shown only on Sky. *by H***N on 12 April 2015* Thoroughly excellent and absorbing series of 2 long plays - Falcon is a detective in Seville, Spain, so there is the excitement of "somewhere different".

Well acted though. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/49568636-falcon](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/49568636-falcon) --- *Product available on Desertcart Great Britain* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-05-02*
