I'm a sucker for a good BBC period drama, and my new favorite is one some of you might already be familiar with - Lark Rise to Candleford. It's a wonderful series in its simplicity at capturing everyday English life in the late 1800's and comparing the lives of the people who dwell in the poorer hamlet of Lark Rise to those of the more prosperous Candleford.
