British dramas on KLRU
Two series will be absent from the KLRU schedule for the rest of June — Lark Rise to Candleford and Doc Martin. Yet both series will return in the month of July. In fact, KLRU will re-start each series. So if you have not had a chance to see the characters from the very beginning, here’s your chance to see the very first episodes.
For Lark Rise to Candleford, you can see young Laura begin her new adventure. Taking a job in the Post Office in Candleford, run by the mercurial Dorcas, Laura turns her back on her childhood hamlet to make her way in the world. With her loyalties divided, she must choose her own path to womanhood.
For Doc Martin, even though he is looking at a new beginning just like Laura, it’s a bit different for Martin. As Martin moves in and meets the locals, he realizes that adjusting to village life is not going to be smooth sailing.
Lark Rise to Candleford and Doc Martin have started to grow on several of our viewers. So give it a try when KLRUV starts the series from the beginning the weekend of July 11th.
Lark Rise to Candleford airs Saturdays at 8 pm starting July 11th and repeats on Sundays starting July 12 at 10 pm.
Doc Martin airs Sundays at 11 pm starting July 12th and repeats on Saturdays at 10 pm starting July 18th.

Tra La - wonderful - love ya KLRU - I missed the last two episodes of both while I visited in North Carolina where they are not running either series - to know the Doc finally said his “I do’s” - oh my - I wanted to see that - and “Lark Rise to Candleford” is a delight - those Brits can tell a lovely story with great actors, costumes and cinimatography.

I love British dramas and comedies, but I intensely dislike “Keeping Up Appearances.” With all the glorious British comedies available, I’d like to see something new replace this one.

Is Lark Rise finished? Is Doc finished also? In the last episode, there was a “In Memorial” blurb at the end but we couldn’t read it in time. What was that? Is this death why the series is ending?

It’s great to hear that the “Lark Rise to Candleford” series is coming back. We missed the earlier episodes and will enjoy having the opportunity to also see some of the more recent ones for a second time. The series has some wonderful actors, it’s well-scripted and seems very authentic.
Thank you KLRU

I fully enjoyed season 1 of Lark Rise to Candleford. When will we see season 2? The BBC has signed off on shooting season 3 in 2010. I can’t wait to see them all. BBC rocks. So does KLRU.

So why is KLRU cutting Doc Martin after showing only 2 episodes of Season 1? It is difficult for me to want to support KLRU when you programing is so erratic.
From KLRU:
On July 31st, KLRU-TV will begin its Summer Pledge drive and it will continue to run till August 16th. Since our station has many pledge specials to feature, Doc Martin and other weekly favorites will be
pre-empted during this time. But all of your favorites will return after August 16th.

I love Doc Martin, and many other British sitcoms. I love Keeping Up Appearances, too, even though it reminds me of my life. I can sooooo relate to Richard.

I love the British programs….Lark Rise to Candleford, Doc Martin, Monarch of the Glen, Keeping Up Appearances. I don’t like Last of the Summer Wine, I don’t think the comedy is funny at all and the characters are very hard on the eyes. It would be nice to see some British movies.
