  • Swallows and Amazons Forever! je britský televizní seriál pro děti, který v roce 1984 vysílal televizní kanál BBC Two.

  • Swallows and Amazons Forever! is a 1984 BBC children's television series based on two children's novels from the Swallows and Amazons series by Arthur Ransome: Coot Club (1934) (four episodes), and The Big Six (1940) (four episodes). Despite the title, the Swallows and the Amazons children from Ransome's other books do not appear. The setting is the Norfolk Broads in the 1930s, partly near the village of Horning. The main characters are visitors Dick and Dorothea (Dot) Callum and locals Tom Dudgeon, the twins Nell and Bess, three boatbuilders’ sons, Joe, Bill and Pete – the Death and Glories – and adults Mrs Barrable, Dr Dudgeon (father of Tom) and Frank Farland (father of the twins). Coot Club sees Dick and Dot learning to sail, whilst dealing with five obnoxious adults in the Margoletta motor cruiser, who are called the Hullabaloos by the children. The Big Six is a detective story in which the Death and Glories are accused of setting boats adrift. A Puffin paperback with the same title was published in 1983; it is a condensation of Coot Club (omitting the postscript) and The Big Six (omitting 7 chapters). It was reissued as a Red Fox paperback in 1993 with the title Swallows and Amazons for Ever! It was intended that Swallows and Amazons Forever! should have continued with adaptions of all the books in the series, and Swallowdale and The Picts and the Martyrs were to have been next. Casting and scouting for locations began, but the cost of filming on National Trust property in the Lake District was too expensive, so the series was cancelled. (en)
