The BBC production of Cranford is a story about
Knutsford in the 1840s; a small Cheshire market town
on the cusp of great change. The railway is pushing its way
relentlessly towards the town from Manchester, bringing fears of
migrant workers and the breakdown of law and order.
The arrival of handsome new doctor, Frank Harrison
(Simon Woods) from London causes a stir; not only because of his
revolutionary medical methods, but also because of the effect he has
on many of the ladies' hearts in the town. |
