Cransford

I became acquainted with Elizabeth Gaskell a couple of years ago. She was a contemporary of Charles Dickens. I really like the characters in all her books and the way she develops them.
This movie is very heart warming and entertaining. Masterpiece Theater did a good job recreating this story.

Charming

Cranford is an unchanging village with traditions its loathe to part with. A lovely capsule of life in a small town.... Gossips, romances, traditions and grief, all in the life of the inhabitants of Cranford. Judi Dench and the cast are all wonderful.

superb!

Set in rural England of the mid 19th century and featuring a group of gossipping women, this doesn't seem very likely, altho' several romances and deaths provide some interest. But this film is great viewing due to the excellence of its production. Script, performances (by a tremendous cast) and production values are topnotch: the BBC have not done so well since the 1995 Pride & Prejudice.
A special is promised for Christmas 2009, so this dvd will have plenty of time for frequent viewing.

WELL DONE LOVED IT

Loved this series. The values they believed in and lived. Hard to find nowadays. Much to be learned from their integrity. Well acted and beautifully filmed. Have lent it out to others who have never heard of it and they loved it to and don't want to give it back.

Quirky period peice

This is not your normal period bbc drama. All the way thru I kept on expecting french or saunders to pop in. each show is an episode in its own right, but there is also an overlaying plot. Judy Dench of course is the main character, and the young town doctor is very dreamy indead..
