What happens

Cranford is a British television series directed by Simon Curtis and Steve Hudson. The teleplay by Heidi Thomas was adapted from three books by Elizabeth Gaskell: the novels Cranford, published 1851-1853, and My Lady Ludlow (1858), and the novella Mr Harrison's Confessions (1851). "The Last Generation in England" was also used as a source. The series was transmitted in five parts in the UK by BBC One in November and December 2007. In the United States, it was broadcast in three episodes by PBS as part of its Masterpiece Theatre series in May 2008. Cranford returned with a two-part Christmas special Return to Cranford in 2009.
