Masterpiece Classic
Premiers January 10, 2010 at 9pm ET
Starring Judi Dench as Miss Matty
Let the Matchmaking begin.....
Two years ago, "Masterpiece Classics" scored an audience hit with Cranford. The British series which drew about 8 million viewers in England, examined the everyday lives of the small Cheshire town in England in the early l840's.
The sequel picks up in 1844, a year after the original ended. Miss Matty (Judi Dench) is still mourning the loss two years earlier of her beloved older sister Deborah. Wearing her heart on her sleeve, Matty plays matchmaker. Cranford tales were originally written as monthly episodes in Charles Dickens magazine "Household Words."
Having enjoyed Cranford this past year, I am excited about the sequel and another opportunity to see Judi Dench perform.
