Cranford
Set in a small English town during the 19th century, Cranford depicts the lives of women, centering on the elderly, the widowed, and the unmarried. The social expectations and customs of Cranford are mostly enforced by three older women. Rowena Fowler is a wealthy woman who takes pride in her luxury items and has outlived all of her kin. Betsy Barker is a sweet, but a bit odd lady who has a pet cow that she loves so dearly that she sews pajamas for the animal. Deborah Jenkyns possesses the most social power. While the other two ladies help her police other townspeople, Deborah is the one who establishes the norms and customs that the town is expected to abide by. The town have more or less agreed to the standards these leading ladies set, which has set a balanced dynamic in Cranford. With vigorous gossip and a close-knit community, Cranford is a picturesque rural town. However, Cranford is shaken when a new family moves into town. Captain Brown and his two daughters unknowingly

The series tells the story of the small absurdities and major tragedies in the lives of the people of Cranford, as they are besieged by forces that they can't withstand. Cranford in the 1840s is a small northern English town on the cusp of change. Things are on the move. The railway is pushing its way relentlessly towards the town from Manchester, bringing fears of migrant workers and the breakdown of law and order, and the arrival of handsome new doctor, Frank Harrison (Simon Woods), from London causes a stir; not only because of his revolutionary medical methods, but also because of the effect he has on many of the ladies' hearts in the town. Judi Dench plays Miss Matty Jenkyns, whose hopes and rebellious spirit were crushed when, as a young woman, she was forced to give up Mr Holbrook (Michael Gambon), the man she loved.Typ: DVD / Box Set

Bradford Brawler
I can't say I've ever wished for someone to be bitten right on the tip of their junk by a giant bull ant before, but Tanner Morgan-the only man capable of making me want to scream and cream at the same damn time-just might be the guy to change that. He's infuriating in every way possible, and out of all the massive changes in my life, I thought living next to him would be the worst thing I'd ever have to deal with. I was wrong ... so damn wrong. Finding out what Colby Jacobs did to Tanner's sister was sickening, but then realizing my best friend of thirteen years played a part in his crimes ... I have no words for that kind of betrayal. Erica and Colby are dead to me, but apparently, I'm not quite as dead to them as I'd have liked to be. 'You're under arrest.' Those words have plagued me since the moment my hands were bound behind my back, and Addison's secrets were betrayed to half the senior class. Being arrested for rape and attempted murder was not something I thought I'd ever
Bradford Butcher
One life. Two lives. Three lives. Four. My hands are stained from the blood and the gore. The screams and cries of agonizing pain. If I lose them now, I'll never be the same. My sister, my cousin ... my whole damn world. It was my worst nightmare come to life, and I don't know how the hell I'm supposed to survive. I thought that night was the end of it. I thought we finally had our chance to pick up the pieces of our shattered souls and put the worst behind us. We were supposed to start fresh, but the world had other plans for us. Now it's more important than ever to watch our backs. Our defenses are down, and the enemy lies in wait, but they can't break us. I won't let them. As far as I'm concerned, they can come at me with everything they've got because I'm Tanner Morgan, and I'm ready to burn them down. There's not a damn thing I wouldn't do to protect the ones I love. The question is, how far are they willing to go? Bradford Bastard is an M/F, Enemies to Lovers, High School,
