Dear Bill,
another one for your perusal and acceptance?

Series1. Prog.8 Homecoming by Barry Thomas.
Description by Viv Dodd

Anne is in the new house and James returns to find her with a visitor –
Michael Adams – whom Anne had thought was to marry her before he sailed away
four years previously. The parasol that James has bought for Anne is
forgotten as James shows his obvious jealousy and goes after Adams to return
his pipe.
James mentions the visitor to Albert, several times, and Albert informs
Elizabeth that James is bitten by the `Green eyed monster'.
James signs Adams as a crewman to the Cape Verde Islands and Anne says she
is sailing aswell.
Adams is recognized by a former shipmate, Bethel, who had sailed with him on
the Star of Morn and whose mate, Bucko Roberts, had been beaten to death by
a group of the crew, including Adams, who had been the focus of the mate's
bullying. Thinking they were wanted murderers, Adams had jumped ship before
he knew that the captain had covered up the event and there was nothing for
him to answer to.
Baines and the crew become aware of Anne and Adams often seen talking
together but James tries to make light of it when Baines tells him. Adams
tells Anne that he believed himself to be a murderer and was not able to
return to Liverpool and Anne. His conscience still troubles him, however and
he writes out a confession of what actually happened that he wants Bethel to
sign.
As Anne and James lie in bed she reproaches him for acting as if he did not
want her on the voyage and James states that he is jealous and points out
that had Adams returned just six months ago, before they were married, she
would have had no need for him as a husband. The ship suddenly jolts as the
coal shifts and all crew are called on deck. Bethel and Adams are put on the
Downton pump and Adams takes the opportunity to try to force Bethel's
confession again. They fight and Bethel goes overboard. James is moving coal
but Anne sees it as she tells James when the ship is righted again. Anne is
torn between justice for Bethel and for Adams. Adams also is troubled and
tells James, `I was responsible for George Bethel's death'
James shouts,' Oh this is the man that you'd have married. Such a burning
desire for justice, you'd be a cinder by now. What d'you want me to do? Clap
you in irons so that you can sleep for the rest of the voyage?'
`Bethel was right, your only concern is for your cargo and your ship,' Adams
accuses.
James, 'Four wasted years and now you itch to waste another seven eh? Or
maybe hang. Just look on that voyage and this and you might consider that
justice of a kind has been done. If it is justice you want. If its
punishment, you'll find more of that on the Downton pump than hanging in
chains'. James leaves the saloon to wash the coal dust off.
Adams says to Anne,'I said you deserved a better man than I and you've found
him'
Anne follows James on deck as he is accidentally doused by a bucket of sea
water. As he joins in with the crews banter, Anne says to him, `Being a
sailor's wife is not as simple as I thought – at home or at sea – but I'm
learning James'

Series 1. Prog.7 PASSAGE TO PERNAMBUCO. By Cyril Abraham.
Description by Viv Dodd.
James sails for Lisbon leaving Anne to move into a house and persuade
Elizabeth to marry Daniel Fogarty. Anne tells Elizabeth,'You can be married
quickly and quietly and no one the wiser', but when looking at her she asks
`what are you scheming now? I've seen that look too often in James' eyes'.
Elizabeth states `I'll not be a sea captain's wife. Never, never, never'.
She and Albert discuss elopement.
In Lisbon, James finds Senor Braghanza troubled by a disease that has
attacked his grape vines. He needs new root stock from the wild vines found
in North America or else it will mean ruin for his business. The Charlotte
Rhodes has to return to Liverpool with a cargo of wine but James persuades
Braghanza to buy a ship called the Pampero that is for sale with her cargo
of salt and corkwood bound for Pernambuco in Brazil. James proposes that he
and Braghanza have half shares in the Pampero until he has the money to buy
the ship outright and in exchange he guarantees to source and return with
new vines within 60 days. He is obliged to sail to Pernambuco as passage has
been bought for some peasants banished from their land in Portugal and their
overseer, Don Vasco Baptista.
Albert and Elizabeth elope and marry but Robert is philosophical as he tells
an exasperated Anne, 'Frazer will make an admirable husband. If, and I say
IF, their union should be blessed, it will give no one greater satisfaction
than Sarah and myself'.
When the Charlotte Rhodes returns to Liverpool with a new captain, Robert
brings Anne a short letter from James telling her about the Pampero but
Robert's missive is much longer and has orders for him to sell the cargo and
find another to keep the ship working.
The passage of the Pampero is slow, `time is our enemy Mr Baines – time!'
James says and the peasants are frightened and treated as slaves by the
overseer who will put them to work on his master's property in Brazil.
Baines befriends Phillipo and his wife who can speak English – the man's
father was from Huddersfield! James decides to head for Baltimore to sell
his cargo and collect the vines despite the protests of Don Vasco Baptista
and James assures him that he will get to Pernambuco.
In Baltimore, James advertises his cargo for auction but the local dealers
boycott him. He has an idea to sell his salt direct to the market and goes
in search of the men, mostly Irish navies, building a railway across
America. He finally exchanges 850 tonnes of salt for labour to gather vines.
The peasants are also used as labour and, when the lure of higher wages
entices most of the crew to join the railway workers, they are signed on as
seamen, even the women, meaning they are under British law and not that of
the overseer. Senor Vasco protests but he is given the job of cook and the
peasants are allowed freedom on the ship and start to enjoy the voyage –
joining James and Baines in a lusty rendition of `Ilkley Moor bar tat'.
However, tragedy strikes. The cargo of grain that James has bought begins to
smoke, Senor Vasco allows Phillipo to fall into the hold and despite Baines
efforts, dies.
Robert had bought 2,000 rolls of linoleum, having been assured of a ready
market on the continent but, after a bad voyage, eating his substandard
provisions, makes a profit of only £37.10 shillings – before expenses. `Oh
Robert, you have much to learn', Anne says in exasperation.
James has had to jettison the cargo of grain and decides to cut his losses
and return to Lisbon as soon as possible. Senor Vasco is put aboard a
Portuguese ship bound for Brazil, despite his protestations and his peasants
are told they are free to go where they like. James has the last word ` All
hands aloft. Shake out the sails Mr Baines, lets get underway again. Senor
Braghanza's awaiting his vines'.

Dear Bill,
below is another description for perusal. It's the second of Alun
Richards' scripts – he's one of my favourites and a famous Welshman. He died
a couple of years ago and was well written about in the Welsh press. Hope
it's OK. Great to see the new files loaded – all the material that has come
to light since I signed up with the group 12 months ago has provided a
fascinating insight to the series for me. In the 70s, when I first became an
avid fan, there seemed little I could get hold of. Merry Xmas to all.
from Viv Dodd

Series 1 programme 5 CATCH AS CAN by Alun Richards.
Description by Viv Dodd.
James returns from La Rochelle. After a storm, part of the cargo for Watsons
is damaged and this is used as an excuse for them to tell James he will no
longer have their trade but he is told the real reason is that Callon is
warning businesses not to deal with the Onedin Line or risk losing Callon's
business.
James brings Anne a fan from the market in La Rochelle and gives it her with
little fuss. She is touched by the gesture and it is another sign of the
growing affection between them.
Albert Frazer invites James and Anne to a weekend at his Aunt's house –
providing James can persuade Elizabeth to attend aswell. James realizes what
an asset his sister could be in creating a link between a shipping company
and ship builders like Frazers.
The `home' that Anne has made in the warehouse is spartan and rat infested
so a weekend away is tempting for her although she is suspicious of the
importance of Elizabeth's attendance. Elizabeth is pining for Daniel Fogarty
and amused by the attentions of Albert Frazer although aware that she is
expecting Fogarty's baby.
As they are preparing to leave for Aunt Letitia's, James cannot find Baines
and realizes he has been `crimped' by a San Francisco bound American clipper
significantly trading with Callon and his son Edmund.
As James leaves to get Baines back – with a gun- Anne asks `would you come
after me?' `Well that depends.' `Depends on what?' Anne asks. `Depends on
what you'd taken with you,' James says with a smile. Their growing love and
dependence on one another is then shown as Anne hugs James and says, 'take
care you suddenly seem so small – precious to me.'
James and one other crew member take the Charlotte Rhodes to intercept the
American ship before she leaves British waters and after some dangerous
sailing, get the attention of the pilot who demands the American captain
allows James aboard. Baines has been beaten and is on the rigging but James
demands he is brought down and allowed to sign his name which he is able to
after Anne's teaching.
Fogarty storms into Aunt Letitia's causing upset and Elizabeth shows her
disgust at him. She and Anne return home and Elizabeth's state is confirmed
to Anne who tells Robert.
James and Baines return safely but who is going to tell James of his
sister's condition?

I already have all the Onedin line on DVD so it was out of curiosity I
looked on:
http://rareshare.me/

It has series 1,2,3,4,7 and 8 at the moment and 5 and 6 are to follow.
Speeds there are a bit slow but if you are patient you get the files.

These are xvid .avi files which play on you PC or through media extenders to
a TV, as far as I know they avoid the PAL / NTSC problems some people have.

Well I have provided the images and a few of the descriptions, but we should really thank Viv Dodd, Helga Quadflieg and Mathias, who have added their time and trouble for most of the descriptions so far. (Sorry if I left someone out).

I do a page now and again but it is bit time consuming, as sort of long term project!

Should they come to me, the scripts would be scanned if suitable, and placed

Dear Bill,
could you look at the latest write up – from Series 3 ptrogramme 3 – hope
its OK

Echoes from Afar. By Alun Richards
Description by Viv Dodd.
James and Baines are on the Charlotte Rhodes. James has a fever but has
plans for trade with Brazil. Frazer, also, is looking to the country that is
due to build railways and needs coal. Caroline Maudsley hears her uncle and
Fogarty talking about taking a steamer up a tidal river.
Meanwhile, in Portugal, Braghanza's son,Jose, is refusing to go to England
to help with the wine business – he is more interested in studying tropical
sea shells! Braghanza writes to James to ask for his help.
In Liverpool, Captain Webster is agitated because he cannot find a sight of
the steamship `Anne Onedin' and he tells a rather distracted Robert but
Sarah is tiring of having to look after him and James' daughter Charlotte.
Nobody is on the quay to greet James but the preparations of a meal and the
young, attentive Leonora wait at home. She receives little gratitude and
attention as James reads the letter from Braghanza; Sarah brings news and
complains about Webster who then enters to pester James about his failure to
find the Anne Onedin. James confirms the old man's findings and says "
Robert's nowhere to be found which probably means he knows summat and
doesn't want to tell us"
Capt Webster is dispatched to Portugal with Baines to look after him. James
challenges Frazer about the Anne Onedin. Frazer maintains that James has
lost the ship because bills have outstripped her value and she has been
sold, leaving a balance of £1,000 – the Wirral Steam Navigation Company now
own her – a ship for which £100,000 worth of shares were floated. James
leaves Frazer's office bewildered and still feverish. Caroline sees him
leave and Frazer confides to her that he believes James to be on `the
downward path'.
Caroline finds out that the Anne Onedin has been renamed the `Scotch Lass'
and Frazer is the chief shareholder of the Wirral Company and tells James.
Fogarty is sent to Greenock where the Scotch Lass is moored to sail her to
Brazil. Leonora and Caroline meet at James' house – neither shows much
degree of friendship.
Jose has been tricked into boarding the ship to Liverpool and James
introduces him to Elizabeth to appease and entertain him but James is now
well again and determined to outwit Frazer over the ship and Brazil trade.

Sorry is in the subject line but I did not put the link in the text.

http://rareshare.me

I just wondered if anyone had used it and found it ok?

I was especially thinking of feedback for people who have trouble getting a
copy of the series which will work on North American TV's?

Or anyone else who'd tried it?

Bill.
