Cool programme. They should remake it. Thanks for sharing the clip. I’ve watched many more of them in the hours since. You led me to a reminder of my younger years. Always used to watch on a Sunday. Thank you.
A good actress. I enjoyed her portrayal of a television personality in Inspector Morse. She provided the best twist in that particular episode.
This Sheila needs to get herself out to Australia!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Yes please!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Never heard of her.
I agree that the series should be repeated but remaking it might be hard given most of the cast are dead. RIP Sally Farmiloe.
She can make my breakfast anytime!
She was my Star in Howard’s Way!

Fabulous actress. Also Stephen Yardley was perfect as Ken Masters.
Fabulous actress. Also brilliant in an episode of Inspector Morse.
Howards’ Way should have continued.

No, it shouldn’t be remade or continued! Why are people so obsessed with remaking or reimagining past TV shows? They are a product of their time, so stop trying to remake them to fit obvious agendas. It was perfect as it was, and all the remakes of TV shows I’ve seen recently are dire!
