The Complete Series (1979)

Adapted from K.M. Peyton's best selling trilogy of books set in the early 1900s, Flambards tells the story of Christina Parsons (Christine McKenna), an orphan who is passed around from pillar to post by family members until finally settling with her Uncle Russell at his Essex home - Flambards. Not only having to contend with her invalid uncle, she also has to put up with his son - the wastrel Mark, whose mind goes no further than drink and hunting. Fortunately she finds friendship in the other son, William, with whom she also finds romance...

Set during an era of great social and political change - motor cars replace the horse, female emancipation and the advent of The Great War - Flambards showcases beautiful cinematography (by Peter Jackson - Hamish Macbeth, A Touch of Frost) and strong performances in a series that remains highly impressive nearly thirty years after it first appeared on ITV1.

This special edition contains all thirteen remastered episodes.
