Frontier House has now made it to the UK. Started last night on Channel 4. Rereading all these comments after seeing the first episode is a bit like reading the end of a book first but it helps having other peoples opinions - whether or not I agree with them (don't know yet - one episode only really gets you into the theme).

What really makes the difference to me is catters' family reminiscences which add to the background. Thank you all.
