What a lovely webpage (I know it is from some time ago.) Beautiful photographs and exposition.
I have watched that scene goodness knows how many times. It never, never fails to hit home as fresh and wonderful and satisfying as the first time.
Thank you for this.

For me it is the most romantic costume drama ever . It’s flawless . So many moments . When Margaret sees John walking through the mill the cotton falling like snow . When Margaret saves John from the angry mob . When there hands touch in the handshake . John standing saying saying look back when Margaret leaves . But the train station scene gets me I have tears of joy . It’s stunningly perfect the atmosphere their feelings for each so tangible and evident . He gives her the yellow flower from Helston for me that simple gesture is my undoing . Margaret nervous trying to explain investing in his mill as a matter of business . He sweeps it away he holds her hand she kisses his hand they kiss . Finally the kiss his eyelids flutter he’s nervous such little things . The end when she goes to get her bag and he says your coming home with me . The kids as they sit down . Her looking out of the window her happiness complete .its a masterpiece I don’t think it can be bettered as the most romantic costume drama of all time . I adore it . Richard Armitage and Daniela Denby Ashe are just wonderful the acting superb !

Very well presented! I had replaced Pride and Prejudice as my favorite romantic novel of all time with Elizabeth Gaskell’s North and South. Margaret Hale is more interesting and full of depth than Elizabeth Bennett, and so is John Thirnton as compared to Mr. Darcy. This is by far the most romantic ending of any period piece on television and/or movies I have ever seen! The direction and adapted screenplay were exquisite and the romantic leads were just perfect for their parts. I wish they’d show this on Valentine’s Day every year so the new generation of viewers will see what a wonderful piece of literature and filmmaking it is.

I remember the very first time I watched it, straight through, I hit that scene and I actually jumped off the couch and started squealing, dancing around the room, pausing and rewinding constantly, and my family were scared because they thought I was dying.

It was a wonderful moment. I had never felt so satisfied with another mini-series ending.

As of now, I have watched it too many times to count, but I still squeal every time, and I still grin so wide my mouth hurts.
