I've reviewed some for Starburst in the past and spoken to one of the creators. In early interviews they made a point of saying they weren't just a gritty version of Jago & Litefoot. Soundscaping is excellent as well

I will probably purchase these as well. I do wish they had some kind of season-bundle option though (and no, I'm not looking for a discount, more for the convenience!)

I've bought the first series, episodes 1 to 3, and I'm very impressed so far at the mid-pointg of episode 2.
What you get: good acting and an excellent soundscape, very in keeping with the Victorian London setting. I do like the two villains who remind me of the characters from Neverwhere by Neil Gaiman. All in all a bit dark and very atmospheric. I'm intrigued if Springheel Jack is an alien that landed in a crash...time will tell!
Give them a go, £1.49 per episode is great value for the quality on offer.
