These Arms of Mine is a Canadian television drama series that aired on CBC Television in the 2000-01 television season.[1]
The show revolved around a group of professional friends in their 30s living in Vancouver, British Columbia. It centred on Alex Carter as photographer David Bishop and Shauna MacDonald as radio announcer Claire Monroe; the first episode centred on Claire's decision, after they had been in a long-distance relationship for more than a year, to move from her home in Toronto to live with David in Vancouver.[2] The series was created by Phil Savath and Susan Duligal, based in part on their own early long-distance relationship prior to marrying in 1997.[3]
The cast also included Stuart Margolin as Miles Rankin, a former American draft dodger running for Vancouver city council; Conrad Coates as Steven Armstrong, a gay drama teacher grieving the recent death of his partner to AIDS; Babz Chula as magazine editor Esme Price; Byron Lawson as her much younger restaurateur husband Amos Lee; and Colleen Rennison as Sophie, David's teenage daughter from his previous marriage.[4]
The series was produced by Forefront Entertainment.[5]
Chula won the Gemini Award for Best Actress in a Continuing Leading Dramatic Role at the 16th Gemini Awards in 2001.[6]
The show was not a ratings success, and was not renewed for a second season.
