Enjoyable Genre

[Highly rated reviewer]

This is my first time watching this series as I was but a baby when it was first aired in 1972. I have really enjoyed the first 2 series that I've seen so far and look forward to the release of series 3. Probably the most enjoyable aspect to me is the sense of the era in which it is set (Victorian Britain) and the reality of commercial world trade. That said the characters and acting are all top notch! The most surprising attribute of the series is its pace which keeps the series bustling along!
