This remake of the PBS series from the 70's is an absolute delight! I am loving every minute of it!
BTW: the Golden Retriever is named Jess.......she loves everybody! So true to her breed!

@Judaline   If you have any interest in the original series of seven seasons, it is available on DVD in a set, bought mine on ebay.

I have it! Thing is, at least with mine, there's no closed captioning, so I rarely watch it. But I loved it in its hey-day. I'll hold that thought. The two series are very different. I'm liking this new one a lot. It is hard for me to make a preference!

This series just makes me happy! I feel refreshed when I watch it. It could go on forever as far as I'm concerned.

This looks like fun-(not a retail site, mods!)

I watched last night's episode on Feb 6th. It was very deep.  I expected Dr James and the young man who Helen didn't marry to really duke it out. But James saw that the man was so hurt and wanted to take it out on someone that he let him win at cricket.  Now I don't know how cricket is played but only James, Helen and Tristan knew what he had done to let the chap save face so to speak.  It was truly touching. I loved this episode as one of my total favorites.

James was on a team, not playing as a individual. Deliberately throwing the game, letting his team down, was far from honorable. It was shameful.

Well, one thing's for sure. I will never understand Cricket. 

I thought her ex was deep down up to something-still not sure about him.

The way I see it James deliberately caused his team to lose because in his heart he already won what he wanted and everyone knew it. He let Hugh take the winning point just be be fair about it. Hugh won his game, James won the woman. Fair game. 

Siegfried let Tristan off his 'leash' just as he told Mrs. Pumphrey to let Tricki Woo off his leash. What a great story.
