I recommend another show called, Home Fires aka Jambusters. A great read and equally great TV series. All about the Women's Institute (WI) and the women who ran it during WWII.

Thank you. But unfortunately Home Fires is cancelled after two series.

I actually watch it on UTube before and now just airing in Australia. Watching again. Yes, so sad only two series but great to watch. Now I'll have to get the book.

I stumbled over it about a month back, on ch 72, is it?

Guy was roughing up his wife in it.
I lost track of it in the TV guide after that, don't know if it is still on, is a lot more sombre than FW..

It was on ABC2, 8:30pm on Sundays. In the last episode the lady who became president of the new WI had connections and got the abusive husband a job away from home, pref in a war zone. So we are waiting for the next season now which will be the last. Pity, I thought it was good.

yeah, preferably at Gazala or Crete or Cassino,or on Murmansk convoys or Malta , somewhere cool and fun like that..

Occurred to me after I wrote that about ch72, that it was actually ABC, but did not know if 2/20 or 22.

I liked the first season, but by the second one I thought it became too soap-opera-ish. Unfortunately, I think this happens to a lot of series.
