Lark Rise To Candleford Series 3

I understand. It's just a shame that our Lark Rise got pushed down to the 6-episode end of the spectrum. Are there many series on currently that are only 6 episodes long?
 
This has always been one of my favorite episodes as well. And you're right--Mr. Rushton reminded me of Christopher Plummer as well! Which is funny because the way I react to Lady Adelaide popping in at innappropriate times the way she does always made me think of the Baronness in the Sound of Music. You feel the need to boohiss when she comes onscreen. Haha! Anyway, I loved the chemistry between Rushton and Dorcas. Sparks fairly flew between them. If Dorcas couldn't have Timothy then my backup man for her was always Mr. Rushton. He had the ability to stand up to her and yet they both suffered through broken hearts so they had that in common. Loved it when Dorcas tells him, "I do love my work. Do you supposed there will be room in your report for love, Mr. Rushton?" Then he gets so flustered he knocks the coins off the counter and they both bend to pick them up. You can tell he's a bit smitten now but would never admit it. And I laughed out loud when Rushton is grilling Laura about what she and Dorcas were whispering about and Laura tells him, "Concerns you, sir. Miss Lane said we are to be kindly to you, sir, because you have a lonesomeness about you that can only be cured by love."
Also loved Timothy's comment that he didn't approve of a woman running a post office but he enjoyed it.

And how surprising was it that the Pratts were so defending of Dorcas against Rushton? "It's an affront to your own estimation, Miss Lane," they said indignantly. And they were so funny when they were thanking Dorcas for the parcel being delivered at their doorstep. Laughed out loud when they said, "Although the parcel did smell rather peculiar. Those French--they're like a different race!"

Yes, Zillah was a hoot!! Trying to lure Rushton to fall into the well only to end up in it herself. I so miss Zillah!!

Fantastic episode--so well written and superbly acted!
 
Just spent the last hour watching the new BBC series '5 Days' thinking who is that playing Danny, must ask someone on the thread. Then I looked at the cast list in RT........oh dear.......poor Fisher gone and forgotten:o:D

You'll meet Fisher in S2 aswell NM............hope you remember him longer than I did:D:D
 
Of course not! The more the merrier!:)[/QUOTE]

Thanks, Wish i had known this forum was hear earlier, i really loved last series of lark rise, well up until episode 9 or so when the writers seem to do a hatchet job on the plot.

I was thinking, now with the news that Lady A. will be returning, does anyone else think that maybe its to bring news or sir tim's death? Like some of you have said I don't think Dorcas ever really put Sir Tim behind her, and as much as I love her with JD, I think this held her back and she looked for any small excuse to push him away. I really don't want Sir Tim to die, I was really hoping in the last episode or something, him, JD and Mr Delafield would all come back and shed choose one of them (silly and a bit dramatic, I kno but aw well.)But it seems the only way for dorcas to be happy is to remove sir tim permanetly.
 
Afternoon All, I've calmed down a bit now, but it doesn't look like JS is on Loose Women, probably couldn't get thru the snow, I haven't got the sound turned up, but they just showed a pic of ???? the birRAB of a feather lass, can;t think of her name (senior moment):D



I've just put up a 'Can-O-Worms' for my Ma to make all her own plant food and compost for her garden.:D:D

Edit: ha ha you all got in before me:D, linda robson that's her thank you, now GG please can u tell a numpty like me what LMAO is thank you:confused::D:D
 
Bit slow at work today so watching LRTC on Youtube via my Android phone during lunch!!

Season 2 Ep 7 where Dorcas comes down to tell everyone that someone has not been acting in accordance with Post Office regulations and if anyone has anything they would like to confess to her, she will be in her parlor. Serious moment, but the scene with Thomas is hilarious.

T "I should have confessed all when the incident occurred. I hope you'll believe that my failure to do so was born out of a my desire to protect the character of a young lady for whom I have a great... very great...regard."
...
T "Miss Ellison...ma'am."
D "Thomas, I'm afraid we are at cross-purposes. To what exactly are you confessing?"
T "An embrace, ma'am...in her Majesties Post Office...whilst in uniform"
D "Thomas...(walking slowly towarRAB him) if you feel that you have dishonoured your uniform by kissing Miss Ellison, I suggest that next time you intend to kiss her, you take it off."

The look on Thomas' face is priceless and I bust out laughing every time I watch it! :D
 
Well there was a lovely programme a few years back called BORN AND BRED which had 4 series'. The first three were 8 episodes each and were shown on Sundays. The fourth was six episodes and relegated to the Wednesday night slot against The Bill and Coronation street and was subsequently axed, leaving so many loose enRAB unanswered. I must admit, I am a little fearful for the future of Lark rise and actually expect next year's to be the final series.
