I am dreading the US version, though I like the idea that Rutger Hauer will play the Afrikkaner, Du Plessis. The episode where everybody comes down with an illness (won't spoil it for you) is genuinely well done and kept me riveted. That makes the story lines a touch more sophisticated than the eye rollers give it credit for. You see, their difficulties parallel of the overall difficulty in assimilating into the African lifestyle. So, I enjoy the emotional region the program explores, and especially the difficulty in having the two families assimilate into one. That makes sentimental pieces invaluable, I think. Main Cast and Characters Stephan Tompkinson as Danny Trevanion Amanda Holden as Sarah Trevanion Deon Stewardson as Anders Du Plessis Lucy-Jo Hudson as Rosie. If we did, we would have no need of therapists, right? And so we denigrate those who explore this psychological ground, using symbols and story lines to tell us something about ourselves. They tend to get to the emotional nitty gritty that most of us do not want explored, either in others or ourselves. For some, the sentimental nature of the stories is worthy of a roll of the eyes or feigned disgust. I am a fan of Stephen Thompkinson, ever since first seeing him in Ballykissangel. Second, I like fish-out-of-water stories.
