Synopsis
Howards' Way was the BBC's answer to the wave of glamorous dramas coming out of the States in the Eighties like Dallas and Dynasty. With a backdrop of a booming boatyard, and characters drawn from the business and yachting set of the fictional south-coast town of Tarrant, this is Thatcher-era TV at its finest: aspirational, entrepeneurial and full of conspicuous consumption. Through the programme's run the plots got wilder, the bed-hopping more frantic and the shoulder-pads grew ever wider. This DVD contains every episode from the penultimate fifth series.

2.0 out of 5 stars Howards way nosedives in this series, 9 Jul 2008
By Mr. L. Rayner (Barnsley, South Yorks United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I love Howards Way. Series 5, however, is not as good as the earlier series. We loose Polly, one of the best characters, a few episodes in and I am hoping she reappears for the next series.

The introduction of Kate O Mara is somewhat odd, although she does fit in as the series progresses.

Also, it would have been nice to have some extras, such as cast interviews or commentary

5.0 out of 5 stars Howards' Way series 5 and 6, 1 Feb 2009
By David G. Spencer (Leigh-on-Sea) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
These last two series are a refreshing glimpse into the 88s - as well as being interesting to follow the schemes surrounding the main characters and institutions.
