It focuses on Molly Gibson (Justine Waddell), the daughter of the town doctor, and the changes that occur in her life after her widowed father chooses to remarry.

"I love this mini series for the period romance story. ****************spoiler***************Watching it today I just want to say Michael Gambon's acting as a grieving father in one scene in the last episode screamed the pain I have been feeling since my mother died. I would give Mr. Gambon an award from heart right now if I could."

"This show was pretty good! Perhaps a bit too drawn out in the end, but watching the whole room lean forward and wait for resolutions was also entertaining! I loved Harriet"

"Excellent series! My favorite line from Squire Hamley…”I won’t say she was silly, but I think one of us was, and it was not me”."
