Dream Team

Harchester United a midlands football team and its goings on - thats what its about. But you see how its run, what goes on with the players and there worlds, there is a tiny bit of actual football on the pitch but it adds to the story line. If your a fan of football, your going to love it, if your not a fan of the great game (yes i am bias) then you'll equally like it. IF YOU DON'T WATCH IT YOUR MISSING OUT !

So what's with Hewland Intl not grasping the capitalist concept of DVD releases? Boatloads of US fans of the show are dying to see the rest of the series (FSC only aired 3 of them, torture!) and DVD seems to be a total money-maker for Hewland if only they'd agree to do it! I've emailed them and they don't get it. "Why would fans want a DVD, just watch the show." Um, because it's not being broadcast anymore you morons! Good grief, I've never encountered a TV producer who didn't want to make money.

Anyone else encounter this with Dream Team/Hewland?

I've found a guy online who sells what appears to be bootlegs and he says he has region 1 coded DVDs with menus and all. But I'm squeamish about spending $50 US for something that in this day and age could land me in jail. (do I have my 10 minimum lines yet?)

Well Dream Team is on its third series and nearly going to its forth.

Its great so far. Always you've got the love triangles between Jerry Block, Lynda Block and Luis Amor Rodriguez and Ann Patterson with ex - Liverpool man Scott Lucas. The on field you have the talented Italian/English joker supreme in Eddie Moliano. Also Ray Wyatt is in the hot seat now. Marilyn (Now gone), Roger and Sandra are all busy at the Dragon's Lair and with a friendship in Didier Baptiste, Billy O'Neill and Wes Kingsley you can't give this show a miss. And Karl Fletcher just tops it all off!!!

Dream Team is Eastenders, but at the ground of a football team. Since it began in 1997, it has run for five series and the sixth is on it's way. It was made for Sky One and focuses on the on and off pitch antics of members of fictional Premiership side Harchester United and their friends, girlfriends and even wives. It is really good because it is really realistic, unlike Footballer's Wives, Dream Team employs real footballers to play the extras of the team, (Danny Husbands, Peter Mack...) and they have real football conslutants. In an average episode, they show some real game footage, doctored to have purple shirts for Harchester. Off the pitch the stories are realistic and the acting is superb, particularly Terry Kiely (Karl Fletcher) and Alison King (Lynda Block) Watch this show if you want to know how a football club works, or if you want to see that footballer's lives aren't all fame and fortune.....

This is an excellent footballing drama with lots of cool actors and actresses and they act great. Its about a struggling football team called Harchester United and they keep trying to win matches, they often loose but they win sometimes. If you havent seen this show go see it now!
