Bonjour la Classe COMPLETE S01

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0105956/
Laurence Didcott is a new teacher who joins the staff at the Mansion School at the start of the autumn term. The Mansion School has been ticking along nicely for the last 235 years until Didcott turns up to join the French department. His idealized view of what teaching at a public school is all about is dented when his Head of Department, Donald Halifax, informs him that they don’t speak French in the French department. the headmaster seems more concerned with fund raising than the pupils’ welfare and Didcott soon learns that fees take precedence over education at the Mansion. Didcott’s honesty and enthusiasm with staff, pupils and parents alike are to cause him grief in the weeks to come. And the first episode sees him creating problems for the headmaster over delinquent pupil Adam Huntley whose father is on the point of enriching the School Arts Centre funds by a cool twenty thousand pounds.

Tilly Trotter COMPLETE mini-series

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0184164/
Tilly Trotter is a down to earth young woman who is full of integrity and impassioned with innocent affection for the local farmer. Resilience and self belief carry her through some very dark days, and this splendid adaptation shows us her journey from destitution to eventual happiness. True love grows with time and in the most unexpected of places. Tilly had her own mind, nobody can take that away from her. I totally recommend this film – the DVD is 3 hours long – every minute worth watching. A must for Catherine Cookson fans, and for realists and romantics.
