Goofs:
Miscellaneous: Geraldine Somerville, who was the principal actress playing the second Lennox sister Emily, appears in the background as a mourner in the scene where Lady Caroline and Mr. Fox are talking at a funeral in the first episode of the series. At this point in the story, the character of Emily is a child so Geraldine was available as an extra and the casting directors didn't think anyone would notice.

Quotes:
Lady Emily:
Is not the act of love... strange? Jimmy says that its frequent use is necessary to a woman's health and happiness.
Caroline: That's abominably indelicate.
Lady Emily: He says what he thinks.
Caroline: I'm sure one sees many mighty comfortable old virgins.
Lady Emily: Perhaps that is so. But one is awfully glad not to be among them...

Sarah describes her sisters.
Caroline is clever, Emily is like a mother to me, Louisa is an angel and Cecilia is a child. I am a disappointment.
This is based on a true story and is actually very good viewing. It has six parts, showing the sisters as children and finally as old ladies.
Apart from Cecilia, all the sisters stories are based around their loves and family.
Emily is the narrator of the story as it proceeds.
The costumes and wigs are wonderful and the music is good too. All the sisters give great performances.
