I love Iain as Jack Taylor. I own all six episodes and I hope he will film more. The character of Jack is so complex it gives Iain a chance to show every possible emotion. I find Jack incredibly moving, he is a truly good man inside, you can see how he cares for others. Yet as he said himself he has a self destruct button in him and he keeps returning to it. That is the heartbreaking thing about Jack, he has so much to offer but his drinking and his demons can't let him be who he can be. Much of this is due to his traumatic childhood, he loves his mother but she left a hurt that never goes away from him. He is devastated by her death, it is a terrible blow for him yet her ghost is always with him. I could write page after page about Iain as Jack, he is just magnificent in the role. If you love Iain Jack Taylor is a must see.

Iain is the only actor who has never disappointed me in any of his roles. The movies or TV shows might have been crap, but his performances always ring true. He is an actor's actor. As Jack, he shines as one of the most troubled and dysfunctional characters ever portrayed. His acting choices are beautiful to watch and heartbreaking as well. I will never stop watching this man and I hope we will get to see more of Jack Taylor in the very near future.

I completely agree with both posts above. No other actor would suit the Jack Taylor character. I have all of the books and DVDs and read and re-read the books and watch the DVDs over and over again. I agree that Iain can play any role and I just love watching him in action and listening to that sexy voice. He is my absolutely favourite actor, I could watch him all day every day!

I'm so glad that Jack Taylor is coming back. I heard they will be making more episodes in the future.
