    Realistic series with a warm heart

    Especially the first few years of this series provides really good viewing. You cannot help but love the warm personalities appearing in it. When visiting the real R.F.D.S. in Broken Hill in 1994, I was told that the series realistically presents the work carried out by the devoted doctors and nurses covering 80% of the Australian continent. In brief, this series has it all: multi-dimensional characters with great actors, rich story lines (romance, adventure, how to cope in the outback etc.) and nice footage of a grand landscape.

    The greatest and most romantic show ever

    I think I'd become dependent...psychologically....and physically. What a show, and all the romantic between Geoff and Kate. And what a great actor Robert Grubb is. This says it all I think.

    Wish there were more DVD's

    I wish the complete series would come out in Season boxes. I used to sit at home in my room every Sunday evening just before 7. Needing to watch this show. The UST between Kate and Geoff was mainly what kept me going, they are one of the best matched TV-couples I have ever seen. I liked the show less at the end when all the focus turned on 'what was happening in Coopers Crossing' in stead of the 'accident of the week'. Other than that I liked the series from start to end and whenever possible I watch every re-run there is on any channel I can get it... I think it's called an addiction :) I just bought the DVD with 8 episodes (the episodes around Geoff and Kate's wedding and of course the wedding itself) I can't get enough, I hope they bring out more episodes... PLEASE CRAWFORD PRODUCTIONS....

    The Flying Doctors Comment

    I love "The Flying Doctors". I used to watch it every week until we moved to Canada a few months ago.

    Between a scale 1-10, I'll give "The Flying Doctors" 11! It's true, it's a great TV series

    the flying docs

    hi i run a lot of flying doctors related groups i became hooked on the show in 1986 and all over again when it was shown in the gold television only thing is we got shorter episodes because of the commercials so missed a lot of good scenes . my favourite couple like everyone else was geoffrey and kate followed by tom and chris and sam and emma . the most romantic moments were with geoff and kate especially the lead up to their wedding . i wish they would have a reunion of the flying doctors or bring back the series in england for all the British viewers. or bring back geoff and kate standish at least .
