      A Fantastic Quality Series

      This series is now around 20 years old. Despite being an ITV production it really is a quality period drama. Anthony Andrews is superbly cast!

      Excellent Series.

      And well worth renting. Great script, considering this is over 30 years old it still holds up as an excellent drama.

      Little Gem

      Despite its age for a TV series, it still maintains the suspense I felt when I saw it on TV 20 years ago. The characters are all well drawn and you never feel ... read more »

      Although an old series that I remember from when I was a lad, this is not dated as it was set during the war when bombs were dropping on London.
