“You decided you wanted to serve your country.” PBS has just released new previews for the upcoming series finale of Home Fires.
The UK drama follows the members of the Women’s Institute during World War II. The cast includes Francesca Annis, Daisy Badger, Mark Bazeley, Leanne Best, and Samantha Bond. ITV cancelled the show last year after only two seasons.
As we reported earlier, the series finale will not be the end for Home Fires. The show will continue as a set of novels, with the first part being released this summer.
The series finale of Home Fires debuts on PBS on May 7th at 9 p.m. ET/PT.
Watch the new previews below:
What do you think? Are you a fan of Home Fires? Are you excited for the series finale? What do you hope happens?
I’m getting tired of watching the few good shows on TV by BBC and getting involved in the stories only to have them summarily cancelled when the stories aren’t ended. I will be leery of watching BBC anymore.
This is an excellent show. There is so much garbage on TV today that it is a shame when really good shows are cancelled. It and several other will be greatly missed. Please reconsider your decision
Please bring back Home Fires! Great series, great cast, great writers! Hard to find a decent series to watch on TV these days. Home Fires was/is a great one!! Love it!
Please bring back the Home Fires show, love the drama, excitement, of this 1940 war story of a community coming together. Best show I’m been hooked on for years.
Please bring back this show
My wife and I are very pissed that “Home Fires” were canceled.
Please, bring back Home Fires. I love that show.
Please return Home Fires….love this show
Please bring back “Home Fires” if at all possible. We were so sad to learn that last week was the season finale; it’s a Sunday evening highlight that we truly savor and while we love reading, we enjoyed it so much (the entire cast and the writing) and want it back on TV. Please, rethink the decision to take it off of the air (sooner rather than later)—PLEASE!!!
I think this is terrible to loose this show. I will buy the books. Bring it back….someone!
Too good to loose!
Wonderful series! Bring it back!
I cannot believe such a good program as Home Fires would be cancelled. What a shame.
I think the books are great I love to read but my husband and I also love the tv series, so please finish or keep going . We deserve another season, it is so well done.
I think bringing Home Fires back as a set of novels is a bad idea.

I agree, I love to read, but I will miss the actors that brought the characters to life for me. I got to care for them & rooted for their successes & felt bad for their losses. The books won’t be the same. I also get a feeling of suspended disbelief & feel transported back in time, to a better, simpler life, even with the horror of war. I felt the same with “Foyle’s war” & miss it as well. At least with “Foyle’s war”, they wrapped up the series. With Homefires, they just left a huge cliff-hanger. Very disappointing.
A futile effort. The show was cancelled by ITV last year and by not too late to get the actors back together. I’m sure a few have signed onto other projects by now.
I’m disappointed Home Fires has been cancelled. I feel it is important to keep the history and the impact WWII had on everyone in the minds of generations to come.
