Bravo!



I will happily admit that tears fell last night as I bid farewell to my friends in Lark Rise and Candleford. An inspiring final episode brimming with romance, joy and hope. I am so grateful to have experienced this wonderful show. As I cuddled in my blanket, it was so exciting to escape to the sunshine and green fields of the English countryside. The idylic simplicity of life where beautiful costumes made even corsets seem bearable. I felt honored to learn words of wisdom from Queenie and Dorcas, to chuckle over the delightful mishaps of Minnie, to discover the power of humility and kindness from sweet Margaret and to see the endless possibility of change through the gossiping Pratt sisters.

Thank you BBC 1. You always manage to transport me back home, and help ease the feelings of home sickness. Bravo...a pure triumph with this show.
