Trouble At'mill

[Khandro]

I watched the first episode last night, I didn't see the first series, but is it likely to continue with such unrelenting doom and gloom?
I spent my childhood not far from that mill at Styall and it wasn't always night, the sun shone sometimes. The only light relief seemed to be the tying of a piece of cotton to the foreman's coat-tail.

the first series did Khandro

I gave up on the last series because of the 'unrelenting doom and gloom'. I've recorded yesterday's episode to give it a try though.

Oh dear! I was hoping, like Dickens, there might be a few lighter moments.
The history was good though, making a connection to the contemporary abolition of slavery in the USA was interesting.
Fortified by a large scotch, I'll perhaps give it another whirl next week.

I gave up with the first series because it seemed to be mostly shot in the dark, very hard to follow.
