''Widows'' was a British primetime television serial aired in 1983, produced by Euston Films for Thames Television and aired on the ITV network. The six-part series revolved was written by crime writer Lynda La Plante. The executive producer was Verity Lambert. The haunting music that was heard at intervals throughout series 1 and in the final credits of ''Widows 2'', is "What Is Life to Me Without Thee"〔(What Is Life to Me Without Thee )〕 from the opera ''L'Orfeo'', sung here by Kathleen Ferrier. ==Plot== Three armed robbers—Harry Rawlins, Terry Miller, and Joe Pirelli—are killed during an armed robbery. They are survived by their widows, Dolly Rawlins (Ann Mitchell), Shirley Miller (Fiona Hendley), and Linda Pirelli (Maureen O'Farrell). With the police applying pressure, and a rival gang intending to take over Harry Rawlins' crime business, the widows turn to Dolly for leadership. She uses Harry's famous "ledgers", a cache of books detailing all his robberies over the years, to find the details of the failed robbery, and, enlisting the help of a fourth woman, Bella O'Reilly (Eva Mottley), they resolve to pull off the raid themselves. At the same time, they discover the "fourth man" in the raid escaped—leaving their husbands for dead. Dolly must contend with the police and the gang, as well as her fellow widows, agitating for vengeance. ''Widows'' concluded with the widows successfully pulling off the raid, and escaping to Rio. In the final scenes, however, they discovered that the "fourth man" was in fact Harry Rawlins (Maurice O'Connell), Dolly's husband. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Widows (TV series)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
