My wife loves this show but even she wonders why they have to recap 20 times an episode. Whenever they come back from commercials or any other type of break they have to tell us the entire story of what we just watched five minutes before. They also waste way too much time explaining what the show is about every chance they get during an episode and from episode to episode. I'm pretty sure that everyone who watches this show is fairly clear on what it is about by now. As well, they are clearly way, way behind with the new shows in relation to the time line of actual events. While they were broadcasting for instance, the story of the New Zealander who was arrested by the Japs, he was already back home way before all the pertinent episodes were broadcast........what an enormous lag! As well, when they lost the first high speed boat it was sunk and gone and they were buying another way before they broadcast the pertinent episodes about the sinking of the first. When the second fast boat was damaged, it was already back and being repaired by the we saw the relevant episodes. In other words, the show was so far behind actual events that the new episodes were way too old news already. Maybe if they kept up a little better with a more accurate time line the show would be more interesting. Perhaps if they knocked off all the blasted recaps they would have more time to keep us abreast of actual events in a more realistic time frame. It would be a much better show if it was actually current. As it is, it can be incredibly boring.
