After great difficulty finding any Bramwell series, except the first season, I was happy to find this Second Season on DVD. This series will be a cherished addition to my collection. The stories and writing are excellent, the costumes and settings extremely realistic for the time and the actors are superb in their roles. I believe it accurately portrays the challenges, frustrations, as well as the rare rewards of being a female physician in Victorian England.
I adore period dramas, and this one has that BBC authenticity to it. It's best if you watch the first season prior, so you grow to know and love the cast of characters. Overall a thoroughly enjoyable TV series. I've watched seasons 1 thru 3 a couple of times and find I love this sort of thing. I didn't care for season 4. But 1 thru 3 are delightful drama. Blessings, Max Rainet. **If you found this information at all helpful, please take a moment to select the "yes" button below.

Historicaly accurate account of Victorian era life in London and depiction of professional women and their struggles for equal education, status, and treatment, among their male counterparts. Very well acted. The characters are well drawn and the writing superb. I saw parts of this series when it aired on Public Broadcasting and have not been disappointed with the purchase of the entire four volume series. If you have particular interests in medicine, victorian era life, women's rights efforts, or just good plots that are not special effects driven but rather plot driven, you would enjoy this series.

Very good, fine acting, a woman doctor in the late 1800's not accepted by her peers male doctors, the actress playing the nurse is terrific as well as the male doctor who comes in to it the first season.
