LONDON - June 17, 2013 - PRLog -- Another Acorn Exclusive as North and South, the classic four part BBC drama starring Patrick Stewart, is now available from the Acorn Media Online Store, before it is released anywhere else.

The classic BBC miniseries North and South starring Patrick Stewart is now available exclusively from the Acorn Media online store, long before it is released anywhere else.

Based on the novel by Elizabeth Gaskell, North and South is an acclaimed 4 part drama starring Patrick Stewart and Rosalie Shanks. The brand new DVD is released on 8 July 2013, but online shoppers can buy it today from the Acorn Media online store and receive their copy weeks before it is available anywhere else.

Shanks stars as Margaret Hale, a young woman whose life turns upside down when her family relocates to the Black Country, at the heart of the industrial revolution, where workers clash with their masters during the first organised strikes. She finds the busy, grey town of Milton harsh and strange, and is upset by the poverty she discovers all around her.

But like all great Victorian novels there is romance at the heart of North and South, in the form of Stewart as Mr Thornton. From the beginning the pair are at odds. Margaret finds Mr Thornton coarse and cold. He finds her to be snooty and proud. But over time he finds himself attracted to her beauty and self assurance and she learns to admire the man and the way in which he found the success to lift himself out of poverty.

This fantastic DVD release is available for a special offer price, and is only available right now from the Acorn Media online store. Buy a copy today and discover Victorian England at a time of great social unrest, and a time of passion too.
