The Village

A rural English community faces the upheavals of the early 20th century, including war, class conflict, hardship, births, deaths, and rebellion. The story follows one family and a boy whose life is remembered across the decades through interviews and flashbacks.

My take

You’ll like this if you prefer gritty, character-driven period dramas such as Call the Midwife or Poldark; Not for you if you want light, glamorous, fast-moving entertainment.
