    The heart wants what it wants.

    To begin with the scenery is beautiful. I love being able to feel like I am part of the community there. Until this movie I didn't have any idea about Ireland and it's part in the Second World War. A somehow interesting plot with some good actors and a wonderful village in Ireland. Could have been better, could have been worse but in the end you won't regret it.

    Extraordinary Viewing

    This story is a slow burn with subtle innuendo, not the brash in your face romance that typifies too many contemporary pieces.

    For a magical experience, hang in there and find a sensitive portrayal of the power and complication of love and compatibility.

    The best series I have watched for a very long time - It was captivated and glued to the screen, drawn into every small subtlety. Only genuine talent could create this from the screenplay, to the production to the acting.

    So wished there was a Season 2 to find out what happened from here.

    Bravo.

    Lost for Words, Again and Again

    I have watched this many times and I always walk away stunned. Hattie Morgan's performance is absolutely brilliant. I can feel her emotions overcome me as I watch the performance. For a few hours I am completely lost to today as I am transported to WWII-era Northern Ireland. I am trapped in these beautiful, loving surroundings but ache for more.

    The characters and story lines couldn't be anymore absorbing than the are. This series is a treasure of both talent and emotion. I am a connoisseur of British wartime dramas and this is one of the very best I've seen. The production value is on par with Foyle's War. If you like that you will love this too.

    All that needs to be said is Bravo!

    Wonderful storyline

    My husband and I LOVED this show and were really upset to see it end after one season. The acting and character development are moving, powerful and tender. Such predicaments! We would love to see this program continue ....

    Great theater

    ... a slice of time, history and geography rolled into a brilliantly executed mini series. Yes - some will miss a solution, or a traditional ending - I don't and each of us will be asking ourselves how "we" would go on with the story.
