A Woman of Substance

This series follows a woman’s journey from kitchen maid to a respected businesswoman and grandmother across the 20th century. Starting with a small shop, she expands her stores and invests in the growing textile industry in Leeds over the following decades.

My take

You’ll like it if you enjoy sweeping, character-driven dramas about ambition and changing fortunes like Belgravia and Upstairs Downstairs; Not for you if you want fast, modern plot momentum.
