Howard's Way

Sadly not, Connertje. Not that I have found anyway.

I'm afraid I am stuck in the 80's and noting has come close to Howard's Way since.

Anyone think that if they ever decided to reunite it 20 years on it would be good, or a disaster like This Life? Obviously some of the best characters/ actors are dead now i.e Charles Frere, Tom, Rolf etc.

We are in need of a fan club. We also need to attend conventions like Star Trek!

Disaster to even think about it returning without all the best loved characers, it would be just too sad. I will never get bored with watching any of the orginal episodes and have loved it from it's first airing.

They just do not make drama like that any more, more's the pity!

Oh! the joy of seeing all those DVD's stting on my bookcase waiting to be devoured! I would love to do a tour of Hamble country.

Not long to go now , fellow "Howardites"!! (I don't know if that sounds right)
Only three weeks to Series 5!!

Whilst enjoying all your exchanges and anticipation of DVD releases, isn't it about time UKtv started showing their most popular series again. No other show has this much comment attached....you would think the advertising sponsors would compel UKtv to show the full series in their correct order. I don't think many viewers would object to another attempt at getting the show out again............and even again!

Although being the very proud owner of series 1 to 4 and series 5 booked and paid for i would still sit down and watch the episodes if they were to run on the television. Love it, bring back the 80's.

Although series 5 has not yet landed on my door step i'm searching about to find a release date for series 6, panicking its going to be a long wait like it was between series 3 and 4.

Well would you believe it........one episode scheduled by SKY next Tuesday 6th at 0500Hrs.........no evidence of any other episodes.........just what are UKtv playing at? I wish they would repeat the first episodes of series 1 ( to make up for starting the series without telling anyone (they could at least let this loyal band of viewers know in this column)). Oh and perhaps complete series 6 instead of mixing it up and missing episodes. One day maybe!

I gave up on UKTVDRAMA long ago. Judging by all the post/messages here revealing how they transmit episodes out of synch , stop halfway through , start halfway through and then cancel without providing any explaination , I find it totally unrealistic to rely on them to properly cater for my entertainment. That's why I'm relying on the DVD releases.

There must be some shoulder padded 80's wizz kid out there who has the mind to set up a fan site. I would but too much hair spray in the 80s turned me into airhead!
I'm starting to feel very OLD.

I always that being superfan like a trekkie was sad but not in this case.We must all rise up and start stalking kate and jan to attend conventions or blackmail them with pictures of them without theie make-up on!

It would be brilliant to have a fan club, there would be a HUGE following if the amount of postings on this message board is anything to go by.

I hope there is some commentary on the series 5 DVD like there was on series 1 and 2, it would be good to know what these people are up to now and maybe some recent photos so we can see how much the people have changed. Only 16 days to go for series 5, surely i'm not the only one thats counting the days down.

There was a programme on a few weeks ago on Cult Sunday TV one of which was 'Howard's Way'. It had interviews with all the stars and showed bits of the ones that are sadly no longer with us, it was great to see them again and the areas of filming, they all sais what a great time they had filming. Apparently the budget for the first series or so was million pounds, money unheard of in those days - well worth every penny or what!

I'm gutted I missed the programme on Cult Sunday. Any ideas where or how I can see it??

I'm gutted as well claire_flower. I missed it because i had no idea there was any such programme on telly.
It should be on one of the main channels then is would have been advertised more and we would have got to hear about it then.

On a much happier note only 4 days to go until the release of series 5. I'm watching series 4 again to build up the excitement. Can't wait

My Series 5 DVD landed on my doorstep this morning - woo hoo! Did everyone else's?

Out of interest do you share your passion for Howards' Way with friends/ partner etc or is it a closet thing?! I'm afraid I have to wait until my boyfriend goes to bed to watch my DVDs - he just doesn't get it!

Sadly, I am in the same boat, as soon as hubby hears the music he's off but quite honestly that suits me I don't then have to listen to stupid comments which could seriously damage our marriage!!

Much better getting a nice glass of wine and watch in peace and quite and just enjoy!!!

I've justed discovered A Howards' Way site on face book. Its not a lot but its a start. Maybe your guys can tell me if I could have been a cast member.I've also recently noticed my typing is terrible on this page.Oh my god, I think I'm sober!

I am part of the 'Save the Mermaid Boat Yard' group on Facebook already. Which ite are you referring to on FB, connertje?

I've only just managed to get my hands on series 5. All that anticipation of it coming and i was out when it arrived and the postman took it back to the sorting office and because of work i have been unable to get there until now.
Watched a couple of episodes last night. Lovin' Laura Wilde she's a fox.

Oh, and on the above comments on marriage, its done wonders for mine cause its the only time me and the wife sit in the same room and don't argue!!! we love it. I watch it for the boats and she watches it for the 80's fashion. Best of both worlds ;D

The name of the site is howards' way appreciation society.Give it a try and i'll try the save the mermaid. cheers
