British Comedy Drama · ITV / PBS · 2016–2019
Widowed Louisa Durrell uproots her four wayward children from dreary 1930s Bournemouth to the sun-soaked Greek island of Corfu, where chaos, romance, and gentle comedy ensue. Based on Gerald Durrell's autobiographical books, it's heartwarming by way of biting wit and gloriously flawed characters who, above all, love one another. Blue skies, azure seas, puppies, and plenty of accordion-mockery — pure escapism with real heart.
