Okay, so basically since some time ago I became very very fond of BBC movie series, or should they be called soap operas too? Probably not,since most of them have the beginning and the end.

Anyways, I of course watched Pride and prejudice and other series based on Jane Austen's works. I watched "North and South" based on Elisabeth Gaskell's book and loved it (and read book and loved it too).

I watched "Wives and daughters" based on the Gaskell's unfinished novel, did not like it, but this is because of the plot, not because I found acting or production bad or anything.

I also watched "To serve them all my days", in my opinion phenomenal series based on the book about the soldier who comes back from the first world war, having PTSD, who by recommendation of his neurologist tries to get a teaching job in the boarding school and well, stays there to teach. I highly recommend both movie and the book.

But I stumbled upon this movie by complete accident by browsing through Netflix recommendations lol and I am so glad I did.

The series I am watching now ( and even though I only watched three episodes, already in love with), called "House of Elliott" about two sisters who after the death of their father ( it is taking place in London in 1920) eventually go into dress design business.

So, my question to you guys is whether you can recommend any really good series (british) which I should not miss.

It does not matter if it is based on the book or not.

Thanks

Alla
