Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
Based upon the books by K.M. Peyton, this British miniseries enjoyed a healthy run stateside on PBS and the A&E cable network. When the orphan Christina is sent to live with her uncle just after the turn of the 20th century, she learns about the class struggle, the meaning of "family," and the trials and tribulations of true love -- the latter lesson taught by none other than her cousin, whom she marries. ~ Michael Hastings, Rovi

England in the early 1900s. Christina is sent to live with her domineering, crippled Uncle Russell and her cousins Mark and William at Flambards, a rambling, decaying mansion. Life at Flambards is a conflict of cultures, with Mark and his father clinging to a traditionalist obsession for horses, whilst William dreams of a career in the new technology of aviation. When Christina arrives, her presence generates a changing pattern of events and relationships.
