From the PBS Masterpiece Theatre series first aired far too many years ago. From Season 1, Episode 7, Part 5 [END of SEASON 1].

This remains one of my favourite Masterpiece Theatre offerings ever! Jemma Redgrave's Dr. Eleanor Bramwell displays many admirable qualities as she struggles to become a physician/surgeon in the male-dominated world of Victorian England, yet her Bramwell also shows some very human foibles, tool, giving the audience a more interesting, credible and sympathetic character. The re-creation of clinical scenes is also quite accurate (and occasionally not for the squeamish!).

SYNOPSIS :
Set in 1895, 'Bramwell' follows the fortunes of feisty, compassionate Dr. Eleanor Bramwell (JEMMA REDGRAVE, daughter of Corin Redgrave, and niece of Vanessa and Lynn) in her pursuit of public health and private amours in Victorian-era London. Eleanor's father Robert (DAVID CALDER) would like his daughter to join him in his respectable private practice, but Eleanor has plans of her own, which take her from the drawing rooms of the elite to the shocking deprivation of the slums of London's East End.

CAST :
Eleanor Bramwell . . . Jemma Redgrave
Robert Bramwell . . . David Calder

Written by Lucy Gannon
Directed by David Tucker and Laura Sims
Produced by Tim Whitby and Harriet Davison

-----------

SEASON 1
EPISODE 7
Dr. Robert Bramwell plays matchmaker between Eleanor and an old friend, Major Hyde. While in her care at the Thrift, a belligerent boxer with a head injury tries to take advantage of Eleanor, proving -- at least to Major Hyde -- that the stress of running the clinic is too much for Eleanor. Her passion for her career is put to the ultimate test. When Lady Pters falls seriously ill and Sir Herbert recommends little more than bed rest, Eleanor intercedes on her behalf. The resulting confrontation with Sir Herbert leads to a dramatic and stunning conclusion.

  • Which episode is it when Dr. Bramwell's father get's a girlfriend. She's a singer and she has consumption?

    Thanks for uploading.

  • What a great series! Thank you so much for your labor of love in such a quality series to upload it and share with us. When I see the efforts of someone like yourself to post this fine piece, it makes me wish I could meet you in person and see what other gems of interest we share. I'm looking forward to viewing Season 2 in the next week - household chores will have to wait. Many thanks for all your efforts from a viewer in Newport News, Virginia.

  • It's getting very late but I can't stop watching. And now there's season 2 to watch. Oh dear!

  • I will echo the other comments and say thanks for the upload! I just typed in Bramwell out of curiosity and found the whole series! I forgot how good it was! I will say they writing and the actors must be good because all I can think is 'Gaaa Eleanor! Does it really have to be the thrift and nothing else? Mind you I say that but the thrift is pretty all consuming. I remember Marsham getting drunk or something and declaring his love for Bramwell, but thats probably in another season.

  • Yeah Eleanore ! You figured it out!!! Thanks again for uploading this wonderful series.

  • Thank you for uploading! I have never seen this before, really enjoyed it. I'll be watching season 2 too of course:)

  • Very well made, up to the best quality of the BBC! When can we expect more of season 2?

  • Fantastic and thank-you!

  • Such a shame its finished. I will wait impatiently for season 2 - but thanks for all your hard work. Very much appreciated by everyone. x
