  Following critical acclaim the residents of Lark Rise and Candleford return in this warm-hearted adaptation of Flora Thompson's novels. Set in the Oxfordshire countryside in the 1890s this rich funny and poignant series chronicles the daily lives of farm-workers craftsmen and gentry detailing the little conflicts romances and misunderstandings between the tiny Lark Rise and the more worldly Candleford. Series two sees the arrival of a dashing and elegant stranger in Candleford. Rich enterprising worldly and apparently without a wife James Dowland is a successful businessman with a string of London hotels and has come to transform Candleford and bring it new prosperity. But not everyone welcomes his entrepreneurial qualities and it isn't long before he is sparring with the spirited yet suddenly unusually flustered Dorcas and aggravating the pride of the male Lark Risers with his superior business acumen and somewhat overbearing manner.
