Lark Rise to Candleford

DramaRomance60 min per episode

When a young girl from the hamlet of Lark Rise leaves home to apprentice under the postmistress in nearby Candleford, her move links two corners of late-19th-century Oxfordshire: a poor rural village and a wealthier market town. Olivia Hallinan is the new arrival, learning the rhythms of the post office while seeing how farm-workers, craftsmen and local gentry live side by side. At the center of Candleford, Sarah Lancashire's postmistress keeps tabs on business, gossip and small-town disputes as the series follows courtships, family strains and the everyday negotiations between country life and town ambitions.
