What is The Larkins on ITV all about?

The new adaptation of HE Bates’s novel, The Darling Buds Of May, it’s set in the 1950s Kent countryside.

It tells the story of a working-class family led by the golden-hearted wheeler-dealer Pop Larkin (Bradders) and his wife Ma (Joanna Scanlan).

The Larkins come with six children, including the beautiful Mariette (Sabrina Bartlett).

Fiercely loyal to each other and their community, each Larkin family member has a strong work ethic, alongside a disinterest in authority.

Stand by for gentle drama and some cheeky humour.

The trailer shows the Larkin family laughing, joking and eating in sun-kissed Kent.

With Pop and Ma always cuddling and kissing, it looks like the kids are mightily embarrassed.

But village life is idyllic for the family.

“A village is alive. And you think it’s said everything to you,” Pop tells Mariette.

“But there’s always more… more stories, secrets, weirdness, joy.”

And, in the one-minute trailer, Mariette looks as though she will be the centre of a love rivalry between loveable tax inspector Charley and roguish Tom.

“Farmer, entrepreneur and bon viveur. Too fancy?”
