We'll Meet Again

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.

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!!

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 found this series by chance and instantly was drawn to the characters and the dynamics between the British residents of a village and the American GIs. It has some stereotypes but overall, I think it was written based on how many outside the US saw Americans overall. It's a good series that depicted the difficulties both cultures had when forced into the situation of war.

Some of the technical aspects are cheesy and outdated but they really are good considering the age of the show. The flight scenes were pretty good too for its time. Major James Kiley was one of my favorites along with Capt. Red Berwash.

The characters are mostly all interesting and provide a lot of the appeal for the series along with each story line of the main characters.

It has drama and just the right amount of romance. I liked how the lead female character played by Susannah York was a doctor and was very strong. Overall, I enjoyed the series and have watched it a time or two afterwards. I even purchased the novel that provided more of the story.

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.
