The exciting saga of ambitious men tempestuous women and stormy seas! Set in England in the 1860s when British naval strength was the envy of Europe this saga charts the fortunes of an ambitious clever and determined ship owner whose private life is more tempestuous than the seas he sails. James Onedin (Peter Gilmore) is the son of a waterside shopkeeper who has died and left him with no inheritance. All James has is a legacy of 25 franks and a shrewd business mind. Despite his scheming sister and her husband who run a rival shipping company he is resolute in his attempt to start a shipping line in a changing world. Onedin is ruthless but farsighted and with steam a possibility for the future he swiftly embarks on his rise from impoverished seaman to wealthy ship owner and founder of The Onedin Line.
1860-ban járunk a Brit Tengerészet katonai ereje teljében van. James Onedin (Peter Gilmore) okos és ügyes kereskedő hírében áll, akinek a magánélete sokkal viharosabb, mint a tengerek, amin hajózni kényszerül. Bár édesapja örökség nélkül hagyta, James 25 frank-kal a zsebében virágzó hajózó cégét épített egy változó világban, mindössze néhány év leforgása alatt. Elszántsága és dörzsöltsége nem ismert határokat, meghozva számára a várva-várt sikereket. A viharos tengerekről, ambiciózus emberekről és csábító nőkről szóló sorozat emberek millióinak szívét hódította meg a nyolcvanas években. Most végre Magyarországon is megvásárolható DVD-n díszdobozban a teljes 3.évad.

| Widowed James busies himself with work. On his new steamship, the Anne Onedin, the passengers number coal merchant Biddulph, who arranges a shipping contract with James, and his daughter Leonora. The Callons have difficulty managing their line and sell Jack Frazer, father of Albert who is now working in Argentina, the bulk of the company whilst Daniel Fogarty returns to sea. His first ship sinks due to shoddy workmanship – the rivets used to hold the boat together are inferior – or sea devils. Initially Onedin is blamed but Captain Baines discovers that the fault lay with the original builders and James is exonerated. Samuel Plimsoll, however, the 'sailor's friend', come to Liverpool to support Robert in his bid to become a Liberal councillor, is unimpressed by James' obsession with profit. | |||||

|
The girls take Leonora Biddulph in hand. Wishing to make her more attractive to James, they make her more attractive to men: dress, hair, a bone corset ... and an introduction to James' younger cousin Richard. Fogarty notes that Albert Frazer's patent for a hydraulic steering linkage, unique and working reliably on the Anne Onedin, is potentially very valuable, and about to expire. He plots to profit from this, in return for payment from Frazer, and run away to Australia with Elizabeth Frazer. James is transporting bullion from Baltimore to Liverpool for an American – which turns out to be sea piracy. Daniel Fogarty's plan is undone when Robert finds out about the patent, and wishes to buy it for the company. When Frazer finds out, he is furious. Giving Fogarty £1000, he washes his hands of him. Elizabeth on hearing that Fogarty is using her (Albert's) money for "their" plans, also abandons him. He emigrates alone. Caroline Maudslay tells James that had he asked for her hand again in marriage she would have said yes, but that the marriage would have been one he'd regret. He needs a loving, devoted wife who will bear him sons. She leaves for London. James proposes to Leonora Biddulph, who tells him it is too late: the banns of marriage are to be read the coming Sunday: she is engaged to Richard. As James sits alone, contemplative, his daughter with Anne enters the room, clutching her dolls. Peter Gilmore plays both James and Richard Onedin. |
