- Synopsis:
The first series in Yorkshire Television's long-running, fondly remembered children's drama which traces the lives of four generations of the Flaxton family across the ages. This thirteen-part adventure story begins in Yorkshire in 1854, as young Jonathan Flaxton (David Smith) and his mother take up a mysterious inheritance: a bleak, supposedly haunted hall thought to conceal a wealth of treasure within its imposing walls. Jonathan and his new friend Archie Weekes soon encounter all manner of peril from smugglers, villains and spies to superstitious villagers and ghostly apparitions. With their father reported missing in the Crimean War, the family's situation becomes increasingly desperate, but it's clear that Jonathan and his mother are not the only ones seeking the Flaxton 'fortune'... - Actors:
