| | Loved it! Definitely feel good, compulsive viewing | 2021-02-21
Didn’t see this first time round but so pleased to have it now. I love all the characters, even the not so lovable ones! It’s good old fashioned feel good entertainment- so needed in this awful pandemic . The message of riches within poverty and the nobility of community is emphasised and brought home in many of the stories. The divide between the haves and the have nots is as relevant today as then - with lots of lessons to be learnt! The ongoing love stories are dealt with sympathetically and

It's like I know these people and love them. They are my neighbors, I wish! I find myself singing the quaint songs and looking for virtuous character traits in myself and others. Get lost in an enchanting world!
| | Delightful | 2021-01-30
It's so nice to find such a wholesome and feel good series. I absolutely love the characters and the simple and uplifting stories. I enjoy the sets and learning a bit more about what life would have been like in an early time. Can not more highly recommend.

I didn't come to this with high expectations which is probably just as well. There is room in the world for twee, rural potboilers just not in my world so the fault is all mine.Looking for positives the cinematography is lovely, the scenery enticing, the sets dressed to the nines, the acting is (mostly) OK or very good (Ruby Bentall acts her socks off and is worth waiting coming on screen for, ditto Matilda Ziegler and Julia Sawalha). In most other roles the bland lead the bland. Sorry, this
| | Highly recommended series | 2021-01-07
Order this DVD set to watch over the holiday season. I bought it used but when it arrive it was new and sealed. So really pleased. Highly recommended series, I really enjoyed watching them.
| | Soap Opera. | 2021-01-06
Poorly scripted and acted in what is basically a soap opera set in an unrealistic English village(s) with unbelievable characters.Give it a miss.

Great series. Entertaining
| | 2020-12-12
Yet another outstanding BBC series featuring the disruption of Victorian, rural customs by the modern world (phone, industrial agriculture, railways, etc). Things change, but human beings remain nice, and solidarity always prevails. The feelgood factor is at times a bit mawkish, but the actors, especially Julia Sawalha, help viewers avoid indigestion. The Christmas episode is insufferable though. Love of the postal service stays with you à long time after the l’astuce episode.

An excellent series, really enjoyed watching it all the way through.

I like this type of story, here the contrast between a little town and a hamlet is the centre of attention. I think the main characters are painted very clear. I bought this story because of Brendan Coyle and again he is very good.

| | Great series | 2020-09-15
This is a great series which my husband and I have so enjoyed watching from series 1 through to the end of series 4. Like other reviewers I felt the last episode of series 4 was rushed along so that everyone had a happy ending but more could have been made of the wonderful characters that we were so entranced with. I might be deluding myself, but I had a vague memory that when watching Lark Rise when it was initially shown on TV, Dorcas ended the complete series by riding off in her carriage

Qué serie tan maravillosamente representada, que describe la vida en la Inglaterra rural a finales del siglo XIX. Los personajes están muy bien retratados, la actuación es excelente. Se lo recomiendo a cualquiera que ame el drama de época.

One of my favorite period stories. All of the seasons plus Return to Candleford. All a must for those who enjoy this genre of movie.

This is a DVD series published in Great Britain and did not work with my Canadian technology.I would have hoped the seller would have alerted me to this fact prior to completing my purchase.I received the series but had to mail it back at my expense. It was over $20 in postage that theywill not reimburse and will not refund me the original cost of the series until they receive it back inthe mail which could take up to 3 months. Needless to say I am both disappointed and annoyed.

Another very good BBC drama series based on Flora Thompson's autobiographical novels about the life in the hamlet of Lark Rise and the market town of Candleford, north-east Oxfordshire and Buckinghamshire England at the end of the 19th century. With Julia Sawalha, Olivia Halinan, Claudie Blakeley, John Dagleish, Brendan Coyle, Mark Heap, Linda Bassett, Victoria Hamilton, Karl Johnson, Ruby Bentall and many more good actors.

| | Charming Little Series | 2020-01-08
This is a character-driven series full of typically colorful English country folk of the mid-1800s. All is gentle humor and right always wins out. The actors heighten the show, each being a bit overdrawn yet becoming folks you really know and love. There is one exception: Julie Salawha as the lead, Dorcas Lane. Her character is the central figure but the actress annoys me and became very tired of her early on. She preens, smirks, flirts and bats her eyes though she is supposedly a strong

What is Trustami

Trustami regularly scans the internet for new reviews and collect them in one place, in order to make them available to interested parties at a glance.

We want to make it as easy as possible for every internet user to look up products. Instead of relying on just one source, we provide a single point of contact to get easily all the reviews on a product.

Trustami does not generate new reviews and stays independent in order to make the internet more transparent. We automatically search on popular internet platforms and websites to find reviews and identify products. Our claim here is to provide a helpful set of product information that anyone can rely on. The aggregation of product data is done as good as possible and may include multiple versions of one product.

Trustami was created as a project of the Technical University of Berlin (TUB) with the aim of making the internet more trustworthy. Research in the field of "Social Media Analytics & Big Data" at the Chair of Information and Communication Management (IKM) provided a first prototype that enabled the collection of reputation data. With further development and funding Trustami became an independent spin-off.
