We'll Meet Again

I purchased this series three years ago; and, I have watched it, at least, 20 times ! It is wonderful ! The direction is splendid ! The acting is superb ! Recently, I purchased the DVD so that I have a more 'permanent' copy. I have loaned it to people; and, they have thanked me profusely. It is simply WONDERFUL ! Superlatives fail me, I don't know what else to say ! I continually thank my lucky stars that prompted me to purchase it (I knew nothing about it) ! It is that good !

I saw this TV show while I was doing overseas student teaching in the spring of 1982. There are 2 reasons why it has stuck with me - 1) it was really good, and 2) my uncle, in whose home I was staying while I taught in the UK, was the US military adviser for the show and his name appeared in the credits at the end of each episode!! I was so proud! His name was Lt. Col. Donald W. Brewer. He and my British-born Aunt Beryl's wartime romance was the real love story that was mirrored in the TV series. I have a full-page article/interview entitled "The real "We'll Meet Again"love story", from the newspaper they received at the time. It recounts the details of their whirlwind WWII romance and marriage and how it was that he was asked to read the script and give his opinion on the accuracy of the language, dress, and similar details of the US soldiers portrayed in the series.

I love this and should add we both did. It had proper writers, plenty of reality including one real plane. Great traditonal acting school stuff

Yes I know it's not camouflaged properly and there were a few bad American accents but each episode had a start, middle and end and a few episodes carried on in delightful ways.

When this was made they still had beer in the right shaped bottles which must have helped with establishing the right scenery. I kind of felt the attitudes were correct for that time period too.

Most of the love affairs, which always add something and the humour was great and most of all things were believable which is pretty key to this sort of production.

Also really great was the film they managed to "rob" from way back then = WW2. That added a lot to this drama. All in all I give it an easy 8.

Love it, love it some more.....c'mon now - my favourite TV series ever!! Last saw it in the 80's when it aired, caught it again on digital rerun (just finished).

Great cast, Michael J Shannon and Susannah York are great, as are June Barry and Ray Smith.

Corny, soft focus filming, romantic, funny and sometimes a little reflective......as is the subject matter.

Just wish I had not seen it on the telly and still had it to watch as if new......go on - dare you to enjoy it.

oh, have bought the DVD set and both books.....no you can't borrow them!!

When I read some of the other reviews before I started watching, I thought why would anyone watch it through more than once. Well, I found out! I am starting on my 7th time through. I love the characters in it, even grumpy Mr. Mundy! So far there isn't anything else on TV that I want to watch in the evening but this. I just wish there were more episodes. The actors are great, the storyline is memorable.
