Flawed but entertaining series
16 July 2003
A high powered banker opts out of the rat race and takes a job as a bank manager in a small town. He impresses the local community by giving them a level of input to their financial issues that they've not had previously.

His artistic wife wonders what this is all about but supports his decision. But she also embarks on an affair with one of her thespian friends. However our hero wins her back in a non-violent way. Their teenage son is also confused by the whole thing.

As a chartered accountant I recognise the script weaknesses in that much of the brilliant financial advice is pretty obvious. On the other hand I remember some of the dramatic scenes twenty years later so it made an impression.

I came across this while browsing IMDB and noticed that no-one had commented. I thought it deserved at least one write-up.
