- Synopsis:
The stormy weather story of high-life and intrigue among Britain's wealthy sailing set. A cult series in its own right, Howards' Way featured the original theme tune composed by Simon May. With tales of love, deceit, family trials and tribulation, it really is classic television at its best. Tom Howard's comfortable family life is shattered when he is suddenly made redundant. His beautiful wife, Jan, is furious when Tom gambles the family's fortunes on a risky boat-yard partnership with crusty old sea-dog, Jack Rolfe. With his idealistic son caught in the middle, Tom's venture faces disapproval from his headstrong daughter and interfering mother-in-law. Such conflicts are a far cry from Jan's social and career aspirations, forcing a reappraisal of her life and marriage. Can Tom make a success of the boat yard and will Jan be there at his side if he does? Ken Masters the local marine tycoon has other ideas... For a slice of idyllic yachting life, join the residents of Tarrant, where glamour and glitz meets corruption and sailing. - Actors:
