DVD Review – I’d forgotten how good this series was, domestic sitcom at it’s best.  Always felt and still do that French Fields was better than fresh, just the way the writers deal with the language and cultural difficulties William and Hester encounter is brilliantly played out .  Highly recommended 8/10. – 2011
