I watched this miniseries with my parents, and we all liked it. Can anyone recommend some similar titles for us to watch? Excellent writing and acting, and not too much romance (no Pride and Prejudice!). Thanks!

This story is similar in many ways to Bleak House (also written by Dickens). As luck would have it, there was an equally excellent miniseries made a few years back. If you like Little Dorrit, I highly recommend Bleak House. You'll even recognize some of the faces. :)
