About this deal

The music behind the opening credits of the series is an excerpt from the Adagio of Spartacus and Phrygia from the ballet Spartacus by Aram Khachaturian. Based on the travels (including voyages to Australia, around the Horn to the American West Coast, to The Confederate States of America, some time spent recouping James’ fortune by trading around the world, including to East Africa and their final race back from China against Daniel Fogarty, with tea clipper fleet) and events (a miscarriage, some time spent living separately, the setting up of Onedin Warehouses, the acquiring and loss of the Pampero and 4 different houses) that happened during James and Anne’s marriage, she must be at least several years younger than Samuel and William. By the end of Series 3, Elizabeth is intending to run off with him to Australia, until she is informed that their plans will be financed by money that is rightfully her husband's [ clarification needed]. Her head is turned by the attentions of the wealthy Albert Frazer ( Philip Bond), developer of steamship technology and heir to the Frazer shipyards, a connection James soon turns to his own advantage.

In North America, Canadian company BFS Video released the first four episodes uncut on VHS in 2001, with these and the next four episodes arriving on DVD in two double-disc sets two years later. The music behind the opening credits of the series is an excerpt from the Adagio of Spartacus and Phrygia from the ballet Spartacus by Aram Khachaturian, and other background music includes excerpts from Ralph Vaughan Williams's Symphony No. Other regular cast members included Jessica Benton ( Elizabeth Frazer), Brian Rawlinson and James Garbutt ( Robert Onedin), Mary Webster, ( Sarah Onedin), Michael Billington / Tom Adams ( Daniel Fogarty).On their last voyage together, James' wife Margarita has a baby son, who is named in Baines's honour. This deviated even more from the television series and probably from Cyril Abraham's intentions as well. Albert takes frequent trips away on business, finally settling in South America, where he dies several years later. On several occasions James sent him off to conduct business, usually on ships captained by Captain Baines.
