When the Boat Comes In (1976–1981)
10/10
The rise and fall and rise of Jack Ford
10 September 2017
I love this programme even though I am going to moan about some of the characters. I love the intrigue between Ford and Sir Horatio Manners. I really like the Duke and his daughter. THere are some nasty working class characters but Matt Headley isn't one of them. Matt drops lucky with finding a wife.

Dolly Ford moans through series 2. Tom Seaton moans through series 1- 3. Bill Seaton is very grumpy but usually quick to see reason His wife Bella SEaton is a lovely character but Dr Billy Seaton is a very selfish individual when it comes to loyalty to his family.

The star of the show is Jack Ford. An excellent many layered character played by James Bolam.
