why oh why isn't this series on DVD ?? as it certainly deserves its place on the shelf . i loved the romantic interludes, the briefs wife is a cnd fanatic she and her husband have nothing in common and as a result he falls in love with a young German girl , the whole thing is full of intrigue, warmth, romance and madness despite his affair you warm to him as he tries to please everyone whilst doing his job and you secretly hope that his affair will last, and the fact that his wife is a political nightmare takes the edge off the middle class ideal so the series isn't at all stuffy but highly entertaining.well worth a look if the DVD is ever produced .
