Julie Graham stars in brand new Channel 5 drama The Hardacres
Can money buy you happiness? That’s the question at the heart of the new Channel 5 period drama, a rags-to-riches story from the producers of All Creatures Great & Small that is based on the bestselling series of novels byCL Skelton. Set in 1890s Yorkshire, the series follows the story of the titular Hardacres, an ordinary working-class family thrust into extraordinary circumstances. After an accident at the local fish docks leaves the Hardacres unemployed and on the brink of financial ruin, they embrace a radical new business idea that subsequently makes them rich beyond their wildest dreams.
Suddenly catapulted into the world of Yorkshire’s elite, the family must navigate not only the snobbery and unspoken rules of the British class system but also the existential personal questions that accompany such a rapid change in status.
The Hardacres begins on Channel 5 at 9pm on Monday 7th October
