About The Dwelling Place
Set in the 1830s, the story of 16-year-old Cissie Brodie after the death of parents and the repossession of the family home. She finds a barren place to live and care for her younger brothers and sisters with the help of Matthew, a local carpenter, but her life becomes complicated when the aristocratic Fischel family take an unwelcome interest.
Directed by Catherine Cookson, The Dwelling Place leans on a strong ensemble — Tracy Whitwell, Lucy Cohu, Ray Stevenson — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The series landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 1994.
