This New Zealand comedy/drama is about an Australian newspaper columnist named George Turner (Erik Thomson) and his family. Turner and his family settled in the coastal town of Weld, New Zealand. George’s friend Woody (Rick Donald) gets married and this gets George’s thoughts to the idea of dating again. Years earlier George’s wife passed away and he just hasn’t been interested in getting involved with anyone. Unfortunately for George this gives the locals reason to gossip unmercifully about his choice.
George’s teenage children also are having problems in their relationships. Shay (Melina Vidler) is still struggling to get over her nasty breakup. Arlo (Benson Jack Anthony) takes his love life to the other extreme and begins dating two girls at once. As George tries to begin dating again the local gossip turns to how George’s wife died years earlier. Some of the revelations about her death are not very flattering for the Turners.
As with some small towns the thought of being taken over by neighboring communities Weld fears the possibility. Many communities grow so fast that without even realizing it that the quaint small town feel gets lost. Fear begins to take over and communities are torn apart.
The shows scenery is breathtaking. The humor and heartfelt moments make this one of the best family shows around. Jonny Brugh, Michelle Langstone, Emma Leonard, and Bridie Carter also star in this wonderful show.
Acorn brings this wonderful show to DVD on February 5th, 2019. The quality of the DVD is excellent and the sights and sounds are perfectly superb.
