Additional InformationThe trails and tribulations of TarrantÆs wealthy yachting community, returns for the fifth series with more shoulder pads, glamour and glitz than ever before! Starring Jan Harvey, Maurice Colbourne and Stephen Yardley.
Series 5 is better than series 4. More glamorous locations like Malta help and the addition of Laura Wilde played with relish by Kate O'Mara is welcomed as a new foe . Some of the storylines with Orrin vs Leo were a bit OTT for the show I thought . the series does get better with the fraud case concerning Frere holdings , the mysterious Eckhardt Sann and the Poelmo Coporation etc keep being intriguing.
Amazingly for Jan and her fashion boutique , there are at least 4 fashion shows in the series though one wonders how could she involve herself with a shady & very unstable business partner like James Brooke.
On the down side , this was the last series to feature The central character, Tom Howard , as the actor sadly died in real life halfway through the series .
This series was based in the eighties when big shoulder pads were in it is based around a middle class family who were involved in a business based on sailing around the Solent and River Hamble in Southampton and the trials and tribulations when the father lost his job
