[show]North & South was surprisingly well received by audiences. The BBC, who had low expectations for the series, didn't publicize the series to a wider audience. They were surprised when only hours after the airing of the first episode the message board on BBC crashed down and had to be shut down due to the large number of visitors. Subsequently, the DVD was released on 11 April 2005 due to the huge success.
[hide] - Richard Armitage was one of the first actors to audition for the role of John Thorton and one of the last to be cast.
- Milton is based on Manchester, where Gaskell also lived.
