The tranquil existence of the ladies of Cranford is upended by the arrival of two gentlemen, who challenge the smooth, gentility of their lives. Miss Deborah and Miss Matty Jenkyns are shocked first by the radical views of Captain Brown and then by the eligible Dr Frank Harrison who brings modern ideas to the little town as well as fluttering the hearts of the younger women. Tragedy, comedy and romance mingle in this gentle and delightful tale of Victorian England.
