(6 January81 - 13 July 82)
Primetime soap from the company who brought
us Dallas. Flamingo Road was set in Truro, Florida and the lead
character was Sheriff Titus Semple who ruled the roost over the town.
The other main characters were the Weldon family (the wealthiest family
in town) led by the ageing Claude Weldon, his son Skipper was now
running the family business (a paper mill). Bitch of the show was
Claude's daughter Constance. The show only managed to last for a couple
of years and was based on the Robert Wilder novel which had been
previously filmed in 1949.
