    I hope so, I've never seen the pilot show, lets hope.

    I'm going to email the BBC about this, a see what they've got to say, I
    suggest anyone else who is interested does the same.

    The more noise we can make the better.

    Bill.

    They are "screen captures" done on the computer while playing the

    The sites are geo-blocked so those outside the UK can't view them.

    It is supposed to be possible to use proxy servers to access them, though I
    have no experience of this myself, Google for details.

    Or of course providing you are happy with the legalities, (if you think it
    is important check about this in your part of the world) you could simply
    look for the shows with a bittorent app or "client"
    http://www.utorrent.com/?client=utorrent1830 The search engine in this will
    possibly find what you need.

    Or there is something like the torrent site http://thebox.bz which is
    dedicated to UK TV shows, this is however a private site which may need an
    invitation to join, I recommend that anyone who might do so thoroughly reads
    the rules and faq there.

    Thanks for that, and no not of topic at all.

    All things connected with the Onedin Line are ok as far as I'm concerned.

    I've not been receiving notifications and mail from the list for the last week or so, on top of this of course the holiday period has kept me away from the computer with all the details on it.

    Once I've found out what the problems are I'll get back to the descriptions etc.

    Apologies to anyone who has been waiting for membership approval or moderation on messages.

    Like we used to see on TV, "Normal Service Will Be Resumed As Soon As Possible!"

    ONEDIN LINE SERIES 2. PROGRAMME 10
    AN INCH OF CANDLE by MARTIN WORTH
    Viv Dodd one of my favourite programmes as James comes to realize at the end
    that Anne is more important than another ship.

    Making passage home, James and Baines find an abandoned schooner adrift and
    despite Baines’ poor opinion of her, James is intrigued by the mystery of the
    abandoned Maria da Gloria. James boards the ship, jettisons the spoiled cargo
    of sugar and takes her in tow to Ireland.
    Meanwhile, Anne is carrying coal up steps in their ‘infernal basement’ home
    whilst Elizabeth tuts at James’ inconsiderate treatment of her. Anne feels
    queasy and says ‘It’s just a touch of sickness that comes over me at times’
    ‘Sickness?’ retorts Elizabeth and they stare at one another as Anne says ‘ Well
    haven’t you ever……. Oh no, it couldn’t be that’.
    Robert also is accidently told of Anne’s condition by Elizabeth when he shows
    concern for her as she bursts into tears for no apparent reason but ambitious
    Sarah is concerned at the news because if James has a son,he’ll inherit the
    Onedin Line, not their Samuel.
    Anne goes to greet James on the Charlotte Rhodes and he excitedly tells her his
    news of the ship that he can make money from one way or another. ‘James I’m
    having a baby’ Anne finally blurts out. ‘What did ya say?’ ‘I’m with child’
    ‘Why didn’t ya say so?’
    ‘I’ve been trying to but you didn’t give me the room to get a word in edgeways’
    ‘You sure?’ James needs confirmation. ‘ I wasn’t at first. I couldn’t believe it
    but I’m sure now. James … is it good news?’ Anne asks hesitantly. ‘Good news –
    its wonderful news – most wonderful news I’ve heard in all my life’.
    James is close to having the money to buy back enough shares to be in control of
    the Onedin Line again but Elizabeth pesters him to get Anne out of the basement
    into a proper house. Robert arrives with news of the auction for the Maria da
    Gloria in Roscarberry. The insurers own it as no named owner can be traced and
    they appear to want a quick sale. James believes she is undervalued and he,
    Robert and Anne (who insists she go) decide to take a steamer to Roscarberry.
    Anne feels unwell on the journey and James says ‘you’re never seasick – it’s the
    baby. Should have stayed at home – I told you’.
    In Ireland they inspect the ship and meet Mr Sankey from the insurers who is
    disparaging about her qualities and value. James is uneasy about what is being
    done with the ship and leaves Anne in bed that night to look over her again. He
    finds evidence that she was a ‘slaver’ whose owners would not have registered
    her to avoid discovery of the illegal trade and he tells Anne and Robert the
    next day ‘ Hang the salvage award – I’d rather have the ship. For five hundred
    pounds she’d be an absolute bargain. On the fruit run from the Azores, she’d
    beat everybody home’. Anne says, ’but I thought the five hundred pounds was for
    a house’. James replies ‘oh Anne we can always get a house’.
    Daniel Fogarty is in league with the insurers and would buy the ship as cheaply
    as possible if no one else were interested – it would also do James out of a
    fair price for salvage. Emma Callon is dispatched to visit Anne and James on the
    pretext of asking after her condition but James is now convinced that there is
    some underhand dealings with Fogarty and the ship. ‘Anne, if it should be
    necessary to find more than £500 would you begrudge the expenditure?’
    Anne asks ‘ how could you raise the money?’ ‘Sell some of the shares’
    ‘Couldn’t you sell a few more and we could have a house aswell?’ Anne.
    James,’Be a year before the Maria da Gloria made enough profit to buy back the
    shares’
    Anne,’And a house could’t make any profit to buy them back’.
    ‘You would begrudge it me eh?’
    James makes it appear to Fogarty, Anne and everyone else that he has no interest
    in the ship and James prepares to sail with Capt Baines who makes sure Fogarty
    knows of the voyage. James says ‘ Anne that ship could be the way back for
    us’. Anne, ‘ another ship, another gamble ? Oh I’m sorry, I just feel so
    weary’. Then she is told that James had already decided to attend the auction in
    Ireland – he was never to sail with Capt Baines. However, Anne is philosophical
    as she tells Elizabeth ‘ I married James for security but I love him for the
    lack of it’.
    The auction is one where bidding happens whilst an inch of candle burns and the
    last bid before the candle extinguishes is the winner. James and \Fogarty go
    head to head. James bids two thousand and eight hundred pounds as the candle
    dies and meanwhile, carrying coal for the range, induces Anne to miscarry.
    James returns home and is telling his tale to Robert, emphasizing that the cost
    of the bid would be offset by the one thousand pound salvage money due to him
    when he realizes Capt Webster and Elizabeth are there also to tell him the news
    of Anne. He rushes to her bed and she asks ‘Did we get the schooner?’ James
    answers huskily ‘yeah’
    ‘Good, its what we need’. But James shakes his head as he grasps Anne in his
    arms.

    SERIES 3. EPISODE 1 The ship Devils.
    The steamship `Anne Onedin' is launched by Elizabeth and Robert. Albert Frazer
    has gone to the Argentine to make his fortune and Jack Frazer wants paying for
    the ship his yard has built.
    We see a 10 year old William as we are told that James is busy making as much
    money as he can from buying cheap, old sailing ships and working them. Jack
    Frazer urges Elizabeth and Robert to get out whilst shares in the Onedin Line
    are worth something.
    James is still in mourning 6 months after Anne's death in childbirth and is
    aboard ship with a young Leonora Biddulph and her coal mine owner/ merchant
    father who finds her a lively handful. James saves Leonora from being injured by
    some swinging rigging and it is obvious from the look and the thanks that she
    gives him that she is infatuated by him.
    Biddulph tries to console James as he too has lost a beloved wife. He feels he
    can do this as he tells James that Leonora has a great admiration for him.
    `She's a child'- James dismisses Biddulph's news and also his sympathy.
    Daniel Foggarty and Emma Callon have an unhappy marriage and the Callon
    company is losing money – `you're a failure at business Daniel'.
    Baby Charlotte and Captain Webster appear to be the responsibilities of Robert
    and Sarah and James did not even attend his daughter's christening. Robert has
    ambitions to be a Liverpool Liberal councillor.
    Leonora begins her plan of action to gain James' notice and approval by asking
    Capt Baines what would please him most. Biddulph offers James the contract to
    carry his coal because Leonora asked him to.
    Emma Foggarty goes weeping to Jack Frazer, pleading with him to run her
    company for half the profits – he settles for 51% – The Frazer Shipping Company.
    Daniel goes back to sea.
    Mr Samuel Plimsol is photographing all ships to have proof of overloading and
    support his campaign to help sailors.
    Elizabeth is at James' house with a letter from Albert saying he is developing
    the means of shipping refrigerated meat. James says of Albert ` he's not the man
    I took him for'. Elizabeth replies `nor are you these days James. You're not one
    half the man you once were – you've lost your spirit'.
    James and Frazer argue over the costs of the Anne Onedin and they both attend
    a dinner at Robert's where Mr Plimsol is guest of honour and expands on his
    plans to protect sailors. Leonora, there with her father, tries to attract
    James' attention, without success.
    Foggarty is captain of a ship chartered by James that sinks and he maintains
    that it had been patched up cheaply for sea with sham bolts (ship devils) for
    the Frazer yard and James to make quick profits. Biddulph is unsettled by this
    and states that the coal contract cannot be given to James.
    Plimsol challenges Frazer about the quality of the shipyards work. There is an
    enquiry which clears James and Frazer of any wrong doing.
    Eliz refuses Albert's request to join him in the Argentine which James agrees
    with as he thinks she should come and live with him. Elizabeth refuses to be
    James `housekeeper' as Leonora arrives and she says `should you wish to apply
    for the position of unpaid housekeeper and drudge, I'm sure my brother will give
    you a sympathetic hearing'. Leonora `oh I should love to apply. I'm a most
    excellent cook' James `Miss Biddulph, my sister has a somewhat acid sense of
    humour – a family trait'. As a possible hint of what is to come Leonora says
    that her father has been persuaded to change his mind and allow James the coal
    contract – `persuaded? By whom?' James asks. Leonora `I always get my own way Mr
    Onedin' `Oh aye?' James.

    Well unless anyone has an objection I'd say that a good effort and will go on the site.

    What name should I use as the author of this description?

    Please feel free to do more.

    And for general information for everyone, the descriptions should be your own effort, no copy and pastes!

    Hello,

    If you referring to the episode guide page here:
    http://www.sound-research.co.uk/onedin_line.htm

    I started this some years ago now, inviting the members of this list to write a short description of an episode. .

    They are credited to the author of the description (optional).

    Anyone wanting to describe those episodes not yet covered/completed is invited to post their contribution on here.

    We can have a vote on which and how good they are if you wish.

    Assuming they are suitable, I will then upload the description to the relative page on the website. I'll provide the images for the page.

    Bill.

    Hello Richard.

    Did you take the opportunity to get better recordings of the episodes that my tapes provided a few years ago?

    Did you get any repeat fees? 🙂

    Bree,

    That's what I wanted to know.

    I'll have to look around eBay to see if I can find it at a good price.

    The thing I was concerned about was if there were subtitles that could not be switched off or it was only in dubbed German.

    Many DVD menu layouts can be less than helpful, so you tip on this is welcome.

    Thanks,

    Bill.

    Bill,

    Thanks for this.

    I recently purchased the German Series 8 (the 2010 NEW KSM / KSM GmbH / BBC / 2 entertain release 3 disc set) The episodes are offered on disc both in German and as the original English version. The language is not selected from a main menu – you have to first select the episode (in German) on the first menu of each disc which then takes you to a second menu where each episode is offered in original English or German. There are also some extras on the DVD set, e.g. still photos from episodes, video clip highlights from episodes, written (in German) biographies of main cast, technical details of the ships used etc.

    I hesitated before purchasing, but am glad I did.

    Hope this helps.

    Bree

    Strangely the post never showed up in my mailbox, and a search of members shows nobody is a member of the group with that identity.

    As far as I can tell there should not be further "contributions" from this person, however the odd smammer slips through the net now and again.

    turns up results for Onedin Line.

    Many of these are in fact the same files as on thebox.

    The problem with using the links from isoHunt may be getting enough people seeding them.

    You need to find a member with spare invites. Unfortunately I only had two and they have gone for other projects. HOWEVER Google something like 'onedin line torrent' and you should find lots of other sites that will allow you to download them for free. Chris B.
