I cannot find anything to criticise about this series. Although I haven't read the book, and I doubt that I would need to having regard to manner in which it has been dramatised. The sets provide the necessary atmosphere and the acting particularly of Peter McEnery and Harry Andrews is nothing shirt of perfection. I particularly enjoyed the out loud and hidden thoughts of the Edwin and Hilda characters. I can see that compared to the usual costume dramas of the time: Duchess if Duke Street, the Forsyte Saga, it didn't contain the colours and costumes, but here we had what I took to be the grittiness of the period. Plenty of familiar faces. I won't criticise as some have done, of Janet Suzman who played a much younger woman, because it is all about the acting.
