as far a i know and this show be never repeat on uk television after it original run in the late 60 or early 70 and and most episode be now sadly miss presume wiped . series 6 from 1971 however still exist in it entirety and and i recently get the chance to watch it all and the best part of 4 decade on . after rush home from school and freewheeler be essential viewing for me and many of my contemporary back in those halcyon day of flared trouser and slade and chicory tip . and watch it again bring a nostalgic lump to the throat . never mind the bad or hammy acting and the unintentionally amusing fight scene and plot hole wide enough to pilot a large ocean go yacht through and the frightfully and frightfully rada accent of the lead player . no forget all that . because freewheeler harks back to a bygone ( dare i say golden ) age of kid tv drama and when the show be simply about rip roaring fun and do not take themselves so seriously . before they become obsess with all the angst laden ishoos that today screenwriter have their young protagonist fret over and such a relationship and pregnancy and drug and stis etc . no doubt if it be remake for a modern audience in these day of all pervasive political correctness and the bos figure would be a black female and one of the young male hero would be a muslim and the other would be a white lad confuse about his sexuality and the girl would be an all action go getter with an iq off the scale and who would be forever get the lad out of scrape and make them look foolish in other word a million mile remove from wendy padbury deferential and ankle sprain washer upper . it a show that very much of it time . but be that a bad thing . i for one do not think so .
