After switching over to English version every now and then I would say the german synchronization is definitely not one of the best in german filming history. I think it is missing a bit of dramatic. In English the story sounds more historical and … how can I say… "deep"? Probably it is always better to watch the original. And it helps to improve your English aswell

Hi Martina,

most of the German dubbing is done too fast these days and I think there's simply not much detail in it. I've been complaining on and off about the Lynley dubbing. The subtle banters between Lynley and Havers simply don't come through. Of course they do have to match the actual mouth movements with the words you're hearing, so it doesn't seem too strange - but... ah well.

If you can get hold of the English versions I'd always prefer those. But thankfully the German DVDs come with the original versions - most of the time!

Cheers!
