The series was based around conflict within the Hammond family over the direction of the family firm, a road haulage business called Hammond Transport Services, after the death of patriarch Robert Hammond. The eldest son, Edward (played by Glyn Owen during the first series and by Patrick O'Connell for the remainder of the show's run), prepares to take over the running of the business, only to find that his father has left equal shares to his two other sons, Brian (Richard Easton), a dull accountant and David (Robin Chadwick), a young graduate - and to his mistress, company secretary Jennifer Kingsley (Jennifer Wilson).


Other prominent characters included Hammond's hard-faced widow and the mother of the three brothers, Mary (Jean Anderson), who is determined to continue exercising her own influence over her family, Brian's shrewish wife Ann (Hilary Tindall) and David's girlfriend then wife Jill (Gabrielle Drake). Later cast members to join the programme included Colin Baker as the villainous financial whizzkid and proto-yuppie Paul Merroney, Liza Goddard as his secretary then wife April Winter and Kate O'Mara as Jane Maxwell, the tough female boss of an air freight business.

The dvd rip was not remastered when it was originally transferred from film, so the quality is not first class - however it is very watchable.





Episodes 3 -10 will follow over the next few days.
