Reference excerpt

Inheritance was a 1967 Granada-produced ITV drama based on a trilogy of novels by Phyllis Bentley - Inheritance (1932), The Rise of Henry Morcar (1946) and A Man of His Time (1966).

Plot The ten-part period drama revolved around the fortunes of the Oldroyds, a Yorkshire mill-owning family from 1812 to 1965. The early part of the series featured the Luddite riots, involving the burning of mills and the subsequent execution of those responsible. The series turned the expression "There's trouble at mill" into a catchphrase.

Leading actors The series featured Michael Goodliffe, John Thaw and James Bolam in leading roles over the generations. Each new generation saw Goodliffe and Thaw playing father and eldest son, with Bolam usually playing the part of the younger son.

Cast with original parts Michael Goodliffe as William Oldroyd Daphne Heard as Janie Smith-Oldroyd Royston Tickner as Charley Mellor Madeleine Christie as Charlotte Stancliffe John Thaw as Will Oldroyd Wilfred Pickles as mill overlooker Thelma Whiteley as Mary Bamforth Judy Wilson as Martha Ackroyd James Bolam as Joe Bamforth David Burke as Henry Morcar Basil Dignam as Mr. Shaw

Worked examples

Example 1 — a first encounter with Inheritance (TV series)

Start with the simplest possible case. Write down what Inheritance (TV series) claims or describes in one sentence, then invent the smallest concrete situation in which that sentence is true. In science, the smallest case is usually a single object, a single equation or a single measurement. Check that every symbol or term in your sentence has a meaning in that case.

Example 2 — changing one variable

Take the situation from Example 1 and change exactly one quantity: double it, halve it, or set it to zero. Predict what should happen to Inheritance (TV series) before you calculate. Comparing your prediction with the result is the fastest way to find out whether you understand the idea or only the words.

Example 3 — an exam-style question

Typical questions about Inheritance (TV series) ask you to (a) state it precisely, (b) apply it to given data, and (c) explain a limitation. Practise writing all three answers in under five minutes; the third part is what separates a full-mark answer from an average one.

Applications of Inheritance (TV series)

In research
Inheritance (TV series) appears in science research whenever the underlying quantities have to be modelled precisely. Papers usually cite it as a starting assumption and then explore where it breaks down.
In technology and industry
Engineering practice reuses Inheritance (TV series) in design rules, simulations and safety margins. Knowing the idea lets you read a specification sheet and understand why the numbers look the way they do.
In the classroom
Inheritance (TV series) is common in secondary-school and first-year university syllabi. It links to neighbouring topics 1960s British drama television series, 1960s British television miniseries, 1967 British television series debuts, so understanding it makes those chapters shorter.
In everyday life
Look for Inheritance (TV series) outside the textbook — in sport, cooking, traffic, electronics or the sky above you. An example you found yourself is remembered far longer than one you were given.
