The Hardacres (2024 Loren Mclaughlan)

Something a bit different - family of Yorkshire herring workers strike out on their own and become rich. They buy a local manor and then of course find it tough to mix with the posh lot in society.

Can't help but finding it somewhat ropey and clichéd, however (groundskeeper pointing shotgun at two unarmed women, for example). 6 x 45 for Channel 5.

The Family: Claire Cooper, Liam McMahon, Julie Graham, Adam Little, Shannon Lavelle, Zak Ford-Williams. The neighbours: Holly Sturton, Cathy Belton, Owen Roe. The staff: Ingrid Craigie, Mark Doherty. The financial advisor: Taheen Modak.

From C.L. Skelton novel.

It all ends happily. Hurray!
