I just wanted to say how much I enjoyed your review of the Wish Me Luck series.

I remember the first series when it was on TV years ago and bought all three series last year on DVD. Having seen all of them now I think series 3 was the better of the three, and the stunningly beautiful scenary in that part of France was a joy to watch.

I would have liked to see more of Kate Buffery's character in the third series and was pleased to see the gorgeous Michael J Jackson return for a third series. Of all the acting performances I thought Michael J Jackson's portrayal of Kit Vanston was by far the best, followed by Jane Asher.

Well thanks for the wonderful review it was such a pleasure to read, even after watching the DVDs!

I concur whole-heartedly with Claire - terrific reviews Sarah! I too got into Wish Me Luck because of Secret Army and now only have the last two eps of S3 to watch. Funny, I think I recall having read somewhere that S3 wasn't as good as the previous two series but, for me, it certainly hasn't been a let-down (albeit I do think S1 was still the best).

Although it's not quite in Secret Army's class (but then what is??) I do think it is an excellent similar series.

Hope someone can answer this one! :)

I'd like to buy this, but the DVDs on Amazon are listed as "repackaged". Does anyone know if that means this is different to the original series - if so, in what way? Is it worth buying, or worth waiting out for an original to appear?

Thanks in advance.
