Lark Rise to Candleford

About the show

Set in the Oxfordshire countryside in the 1890s, Lark Rise to Candleford is a love letter to a vanished corner of rural England, teeming with wit, wisdom and romance.

Seen through the eyes of young Laura, the series depicts the relationship between the contrasting communities of the small old-fashioned hamlet, Lark Rise, and its neighbouring market town, Candleford, whose residents are eager to embrace the future.

This series sees the arrival of a dashing and elegant stranger in Candleford. Rich, enterprising, worldly and without a wife, James Dowling soon has the Pratt sisters batting their eyelashes in his direction. Where did he come from and what is his business in Candleford? It soon transpires that not only is he the owner of the new Golden Lion Hotel, but he was once a resident of Lark Rise and the Lark Risers are thrilled that ‘Little James’, who ran away to make his fortune, has returned.

    I watched the 1st Series on Catch up over Xmas..I enjoyed it so much I bought the Box Set. Fabulous! I thoroughly enjoyed watching the drama, it was heart warming and sentimental. I was really disappointed when I realised there wasn't a 5th Series planned..how about a Christmas Special or film..please!!

    It's lovely. Very good acting, light-hearted drama, entertaining and uplifting without vulgarity. English tv at its best. Keep exporting series like this one.
