    Storyline

    • Trivia
      Shortly after the climactic last episode of Season 2, in which the fate of several characters hangs in the balance, it was announced that ITV had canceled the series. By this time, plans for a third season of episodes were under way and writers had already written scripts (contents unknown!) in which the cliffhanger was resolved - one way or the other. An online petition was created to resurrect Home Fires. It has just over 46320 signatures (updated 05/24/17).

    Brilliant Wartime Drama
    Series one took a little while to warm up but was very enjoyable to watch.

    Series two deserves 10/10. It had me completely hooked which is why I'm completely devastated to hear that the show was then axed. WHYYYYYYYYY????

    FAQ2

    • In Season 2, a great many of the characters (both female and male) carry what appear to be rectangular cardboard handbags with a string shoulder-strap. No one ever refers to them or opens them. I'm sure these bags are something that everyone alive during WW2 would have known a bout, but they remain a mystery to me. Does anyone know what they are? 1st-Aid kits?
