Darling Buds of May Collection Reviews
Possibly the best thing ever on TV
I really don't think I'm exaggerating. I can't get over how good this show is. It has everything--humor, drama, romance, adventure, mystery. There's even a bit of raciness, but on the level where the adults get a bit of a laugh while it goes over the kids' heads. Family and friends are more important than anything, standing up for your principles always pays off in the end, and marching to the beat of your own drummer is important. And yet this is all handled in a way that isn't preachy or condescending; it's even fun! I would give it 10 stars if possible.
English charm and fun in 1950's
This TV series is certainly an antidote for the stupid TV programs that are on American TV these days. I have thoroughly enjoyed watching this series and have not finished all the DVD's yet. Pop Larkin and his wife are superb actors and they fit perfectly with the book that I have read previously. I enjoyed viewing the couple having dinner in a bathtub!! Zeta Jones is lovely but seems almost too elegant. Being from farming stock, I appreciate how Pop Larkin outwits the local gentry so cleverly. If you're tired of mindless sitcoms on TV, this is a gentle and fun show to watch. A great combination of romance and humor. *** I agree with the other reviewer that this needs closed captioning!!
