An absolute Gem of a programme
Made, and based in Australia.
A woman is perched between the harsh legacy of the Second World War and the hope of a new life in her native Australia.
In the first episode, Sarah Adams learns some tragic news, which leads her to decide to return to her home.
Romantic drama set during the 1950s, starring Marta Dusseldorp.
Weekdays on BBC2, 3:00pm this week, 3:10pm next week
Marta Dusseldorp is brilliant in the leading role.
Well worth watching, on iPlayer if you miss any Episodes.
Thoroughly recommended.

I saw it at Australian pace. Am recording it on BBC2 because it is in HD.
Just a bit worried they may have to censor it a little due to the day time showing.
It is a very good series and I'm so pleased to hear it has been renewed.
Janet King is another one they should get.
It's great that it's on BBC 2, but I do think that it's rather wasted being on during the day without an evening repeat. I guess because of the popularity of Neighbours and Home and Away, channel controllers are scared that people regard Australian drama as being lightweight, which is not the case and maybe that's why- with the exception of the Aussie soaps and Wentworth - not many Aussie shows get to the UK.
Perhaps it may get a weekly evening repeat if they have the rights.
Sometimes they do show the UK daily shows they make like 'The Indian Doctor' and 'Moving On' in the evening.
The show isn't too adult, but I think there are a couple of scenes that might not make the daytime cut.
Yup! I think it's great. Have recorded it when I'm not around.
In June 2013, Erin McWhirter from TV Week announced that A Place to Call Home had been renewed for another season.
Abby Earl told McWhirter, "We're locked in pre-production in August and then we start filming in September, so there's plenty of time for me to get back in Anna's shoes."
The second season started on 11 May 2014 and concluded on 13 July 2014.
TV Week confirmed that a third season had been commissioned.
However, one month later, the magazine reported that Channel Seven had passed on the option to renew the series and had recently told the cast and crew they wouldn't be required for a third season.
On 15 October 2014, it was announced that Foxtel had finalised a deal with Channel Seven that would see a third series written by Bevan Lee, produced by Seven Productions, but aired on Foxtel.
On 25 October 2014, The Daily Telegraph announced that A Place to Call Home was renewed for another two seasons and would return in late 2015, airing on Foxtel channel, SoHo.
It was also announced that all the original cast & crew members would return.
Now I notice that episode 10 of 13 of A Place to Call Home airs on Friday then nothing next week due to the snooker. Any idea when/if the final 3 episodes will be broadcast?
Probably after the snooker has finished.
It's good for me as I'm having scaffolding put up and it will block my sat signal and I'm recording it in HD.
So that will mean I will only miss one episode (Friday).
I've seen them all before but it will be good to have them in HD.
Monday 8th December 15:10.
Then presumably Tuesday & Wednesday, EPG stops at Monday 8th
I liked the first two series of Winners and Losers, but by the third season the show became ridiculous and soapy with long lost relatives, shootings and several jump the shark moments.
EPG confirms Tuesday & Wednesday, 15:10.
Elizabeth returns from hospital ...............
Tuesday 9th...
George is delighted when Sarah............
Wednesday 10th...
Anna is relieved when Gino........

1/10 - 2, No Secrets Ever
Yes...... Series Two follows on.
Meanwhile in 1953
This is the afternoon slot that Channel 5 has been using for many years for its' daily dose of Afternoon Matinées, for the ladies.
I do however think that it deserves a Sunday Afternoon slot for repeats, perhaps as double episodes.
EPG for Monday 22nd

Although I saw it at Australian Pace, it is a nice treat for those who haven't seen it yet to see the whole show so far in such a short time.
At least I get to see it in HD without break bumpers.
As it was a day off work and I live alone ...(so no one to worry about!,)... I started watching it back to back lol.............. I sat from about 4pm to about midnight watching one after the other!... and I so enjoyed it!............... I couldn't believe my luck that it was all there still there.......................
