I was surprised to learn I had access to this delightful series on Britbox. It also introduced me to Arnold Bennett's work which I had not been aware of.
This series is very well done. I was most impressed by the compelling story and charming grace of the main characters. Peter Davison is quite remarkable as Henry. It is no wonder his career skyrocketed after this series. I was also delighted to see young Anton Lesser. His acting talent in Anna of Five Towns is very much apparent.
The series is very true to Bennett's text. I love the casting. So wonderful to see character actors that depict real people without the Hollywood glamour.
I highly recommend this series!
