London's Burning was one of LWT's most popular and enduring series. Featuring the firefighters of Blackwall Station's Blue Watch, the dramatic and sometimes tragic situations encountered by the team were often based on real-life events, and always counterpointed by the more private stories of the firefighters. It is this combination of famously realistic action scenes and personal issues that made London's Burning a huge ratings hit, with its quirky and very human characters finding great affection among viewers throughout its 16-year span.
