Rating  - Best PBS has to offer
Fans of Poirot, Holmes, Rumpole of the Bailey and other PBS dramatizations, we find Foyle's War the best. Singulary best dramaticized, best plots, best characters, etc. We were actually saddened when we watched what we knew to be the last episode.
Rating - Foyle's War set 5
First rate intertainment, well written, blends in well with known historical events during/just after WW II. The entire Foyle's War series is a must for British Mystery fans.
Rating - Fascinating Series
This is a really good series. Learned a great deal about secret doings during WWII that was recently declassified stuff. Michael Kitchen is a fabulous actor and the ensemble cast truly worked.
Rating - Good Bye Old Friend at least for now
Foyle's War continues with the last 3 episodes to the conclusion of the War in Europe. This period Series continues with its accurate historical background and props. I know it must be very expensive to produce these episodes. But with all their popularity, they must be making money in its production.
Foyle comes out of retirement in the first episode entitled "Plan of Attack" in which Sergeant Milner's investigation sets a series of things to happen and it brings Detective Superintendent Foyle back into the game. Foyle probes the death of a young cartographer from the Air Ministry. Foyle's back, and he probes like a bulldog. The multilayered piece of cinematography is the very essence of what makes this series so good.
In the second episode of the 5th series entitled "Broken Souls" again we find Foyle pursuing justice in his investigation of a Doctor's murder. I have to laugh because in a rather Foyle like move he picks up an object quite randomly and finds the major clue. It reminded me of the comic Pink Panther Detective.
The final episode finds us in May, 1945. Entitled "All Clear"
which means the end of the War in Europe. Christopher Foyle's son Andrew returns from the RAF and gets back with Samantha. This story can go on. Will it? I don't know, I can only hope. It has been a well written and an historically accurate series. We need more television such as this. 5 Stars!! Riight!!!
