Customer Reviews:

  Wonderful (26 September 2008)
Absolutely brilliant adaptation and a great ensemble cast. I have to single out Eileen Atkins performance as the one which affected me most - the scene where she sits struggling with her ideas of convention as to whether she can attend the funeral in support of her friend is breathtakingly good - so much of what you understand is going on is not dialogue based but entirely down to her performance.

More drama of this quality please.


  Exellent (07 August 2008)
This is a beautiful, sad and very funny costume drama, really a treat. The acting is super and the costumes, surroundings are one of the best so far. I would highly recommend this for any costume drama fan!

  Excellent (18 July 2008)
Others have covered what my views on this, so I'll just say an excellent rendition of the original. Worth watching and re-watching.

  Pure Class (03 July 2008)
What a fantastic series, and a real breath of fresh air on television which is polluted with "reality" stars who are famous usually for being talentless.
A quality cast from the top to the bottom, great subtle humour, some very funny moments as well as being heartbreaking in parts. A real gem, a great delight and unfortunatley a real rarity for any channel to produce such an all round class act.

  Ideal entertainment for a rainy Sunday afternoon (02 July 2008)
I loved this subtle but at the same time poignant period drama series. It brilliantly portrays the lives of serveral middle class women of various ages who have too much time on their hands and therefore any trivial event in the small town becomes a welcome distraction and the subject of gossip. The arrival of a young, handsome bachelor doctor as well as the building of a railway line through Cranford bring romance, excitement as well as jealousy and anger to the female population.
There is a lot of humor in this series but it is gently ironic and subtle reather than 'in your face'. Very well acted and enjoyable to watch!
