VHS : When The Boat Comes In - The Complete Series 1 [1976]
A heart warming and emotive view of post First World War Tyneside. Showing the heartache, poverty and deprivation but the strong and proud spirit of the people of the region and no doubt heavy industrial communities nationwide, that sadly no longer exist. However it's not all doom and gloom and there's merriment as well. I thoroughly enjoyed watching this BBC drama, that at one time attracted millions to the telly to watch yet for some strange reason was never repeated. I would recommend this to everyone, a classic. I can't wait for the full series to be released as it's not taken me long to watch all six videos in fact I've had to ration myself otherwise I'll have a long wait. James Bolam, Susan Jameson and the rest of the cast are excellent ... Read More:

I remember watching this superb series when it first aired on PBS in the USA. It was unforgettable and I've wanted it for my home collection ever since. But of course the PAL system is incompatible for systems in the US. It would be GREAT to have this reproduced in a DVD format. If it could be done for "Upstairs, Downstairs" then why not for "How Green Was My Valley?"

My memory did not play me false - this was such a delight to watch again as the characters came to life on the screen. It stands the test of time and does full justice to Trollops original. New as well as original viewers will thoroughly enjoy this series.

For all those fans of Agatha Christie who have read all her books and seen all the TV adaptations - here's a comparable but less familiar character. A young Peter Davison in a far more fun and indulgent role than his recent appearance as the 'Last Detective' in these adaptations of Margery Allingham's detective novels. Quirky enough to keep you gripped through the 2 episodes but not so contrived as to scream 'period drama'. See it if you can - if only for the car!
