I enjoyed watching this disc, and it certainly captivated me enough to watch all three episodes at one sitting.

It follows three main stories.

1. the main female character's attempts to change the poverty in her immediate world, despite her sex and resistence by others, plus the love interest you would expect.

2. The doctor's love life, financial crisis and how this affects his work and integrity.

3. What happens to the most powerful man in the town when a man from his past comes to blackmail him.

It didn't have the same impact on me as Pride and Prejudice, nor is it as well produced in my opinion, however if you like a gentle period drama it is worth considering.
