content: As a great lover of BBC period pieces, I came to this one with high hopes, despite its cancellation. However, there was a reason it was cancelled. The scripts are not good. The acting is fine, the sets are great, the overall conception is a good one, and expectations were high. But it is annoying. They needed to hire Davies or someone to come in and save this thing, but they didn't. It is not worth a second viewing, except under extreme boredom, and therefore it is probably not worth buying the DVD (unless you have a crush on someone in the cast).
