MASTERIECE in its UK war home front greatness
Captivating, spellbinding, and impossible to stop between episodes. The story of a small rural English village as WW2 unfolds. Foyle’s War set the bar with sets, story & costumes on WWII home front drama and the ladies of “HOME FIRES” HAVE MET THAT CHALLENGE. Well done again Masterpiece. From the Julie Summers book “Jambusters”, 2013, and Summers can be spotted as a cameo character in episode 2. Filmed in Cheshire England, the story setting as well, it is nostalgic perfection. Cast is overall great, allowing many memorable characters to unfold, too many to mention. Leaders of the Women’s Institute with their banter and one-upmanship are brilliant played by Francesca Annis (‘Restless’) as Cameron the outgoing head, and Samantha Bond (‘Downton Abbey’) as new President Barden. Dr Campbell (Ed Stoppard –‘Upstairs, Downstairs’) and wife Erica (Frances Grey –‘Vanity Fair’) portray an important couple with as much finesse as the Simms, a writer & wife battered couple (Mark Bazeley –‘The Queen’) (Claire Rushbrook –‘The Mill’ ‘Mutual Friends’). SDH SUBTITLES for all 6 hour episodes. NO bonus materials except ads. [1] AUG 1939 pre-war fears and friction causes the Women’s Institute (WI) to divide. Past President walks out, followed by many of the higher class members, expecting collapse, or a plea to return. Viewers are introduced to many of the town locals. Blackberry jam becomes a WI saving project. [2] SEP 1939 War has begun. Great Paxford WI new leadership proposes plowing the cricket pitch for food production. More characters unveiled. [3] NOV 1939 war continues and more sons and husbands opt to fight. The new Paxford WI pushes for everyone to do their part. Both love and anguish prevails in local marriages. [4] FEB 1940 The WI plans for a town air raid shelter. A conchie is exposed. A first fatality for the village of Great Paxford. [5] MAR 1940 Rationing, a blind evacuee from Liverpool, a mourning bride, and personal triumphs. Paxford citizens doing their bit for the boys, except for a white feather. Secrets exposed. [6] MAY 1940 France’s fall is anticipated. Ambulances are the new WI target. Some threads close, others left open for a 2nd season as the sky fills with planes depicting the front is ever closer. I must comment on the delightful, soulful, music of Indigo Girls for the theme song. It can be found as a download single “There’s still My Joy”; & on the album “Holly Happy Days”. Mine is in the mail to listen to until season two of “HOME FIRES” is available. ... show more

A beautifully crafted series with incredible actors!
This is Season 1 of a 2 season series about a group of women in a small English town and how they live their lives pre-WW II and then during the war. It's kind of like the series "Cranford" only a century later. These women are strong and resilient. Their stories do not intertwine but they are all members of the Women's Institute and that is what forms their bond of friendship so while they each have their own story, the series also focuses on them (along with minor characters) as a group. This is beautifully done: the clothes, the hair, the set decoration, the town, everything....it feels like you're watching it in real time during WW II. Francesca Annis is SO fabulous in this and such a great actress; and Samantha Bond (Lady Rosamund Painswick from Downton Abbey) plays her part brilliantly. Claire Rushbrook (Mrs. Simms) is just incredible playing a woman who is both mentally and physically abused by her husband. All around, the acting is perfection. These actresses (and men actors) just absorb themselves into their characters. This series also confirms how all British people just came together during the War because they had one common goal. It was representative of how a small village all knew each other, helped each other, celebrated their joys, and cried for their sorrows. If you're a member of Amazon Prime, you can view this Season 1 in its entirety thru Prime Video. You won't be disappointed. ... show more

Remembering the Times.
I purchased both seasons. It really helps to be able to use the sub titles that you can access with the DVD's. I also watch the shows on my PBS channels and perhaps it's just me; but I lose much of the dialogue without those subtitles. The show itself is a great look into the trials that were commensurate of that period of history in a country that was literally thrust upon them in a Country under the guns. It makes one gratefull that this country was not directly under that type of pressure. I'm a very old man, but I clearly remember that period of time ... show more

Great series, but abridged episodes!!!!
I just watched my DVD (this same version), and there are at least two scenes from of episode 1 left out of the version that was broadcast on PBS: the scene where the teacher is being interviewed for the job and the scene where Steph tells the WI that she has blackberries on her land and the WI can pick them. Why are these scenes missing from a DVD that says UK version? The episodes on these DVDs are all @ 47-48 minutes long, but the versions that were originally broadcast on PBS were longer. There's a scene missing from episode 2 as well: the scene where Mrs. Barden tells Clare to go check out Spencer's girlfriend at the telephone office. I'm disappointed that this set, claiming to be the UK version (which I presumed would be an unabridged version), doesn't have complete episodes as broadcast on PBS! Does anyone know if the full episodes are available anywhere? ... show more

Magnificent Series
LOVE this series ! I watched it and was instantly a part of their village and the heartaches and triumphs each village resident endured ! The coming war and the Women's Institute were topics I did not fully know about from the English standpoint. Each character is cultivated to their highest potential and it is hard NOT to identify with each of them ! There are two seasons of this series and sadly ITV cancelled the show at the most incredible cliffhanger episode! Curse ITV for this ! ... show more
