MAGAZINE

In the new issue of Radio Times magazine...

We go behind the scenes of Cranford, a TV series that has seen the Wiltshire village of Lacock recast in the mould of the 1840s for an adaptation of Elizabeth Gaskell's novels Cranford, Mr Harrison's Confessions and My Lady Ludlow.

Boasting a stellar cast, including Judi Dench and Philip Glenister, the three-in-one drama may well surprise viewers with its unashamed portrayal of Victorian life - a portrayal that is far more Wisteria Lane than Bleak House...
