London's Burning is one of the greatest if not the greatest firefighting programs to ever be shown on television. The show tells us the story of firefighters in Blackwall and the many situations they find themselves in, there characters are all really likable and the ones your meant to hate, you actually feel anger with. The locations and themes throughout the show are vast and there are many places no longer around anymore which is one thing I loved about the show, the passing of time was very relevant.
The Series consists of 14 series, the first nine are fantastic, afterwards how ever things get more soapy as the show shifts more into drama and the personal lives of the firefighters. Series 11 and 12 I still like despite this fact but series 10 and 13 I just cannot excuse. Series 14 they had hit rock bottom and most of the original cast was no longer there.
There is potential to revive the show for a younger generation aswell, but they would have to cut back and have the story take place after the ending of series 12 as if 13 and 14 never happened. This way they can bring back characters who never fully got closure and create a kind of passing of torch story. Sicknote not dying but being wounded, and Joe still dying. It would take place today so 20 years since the events of the firework factory explosion, there is a lot of potential but Its highly doubtful the show will resurface.
