good-hearted

In the end the good-hearted girls had their way, and the pen was back in Penelope’s possession, along with a fresh new pad of paper to write her thoughts upon.

It had fallen upon poor Margaret, the good-hearted and squeaky-voiced housemaid, to help Lady Constance change into a fresh gown and fix her hair so that she might receive her unexpected guest.

“Poor Margaret,” Penelope thought as she watched the good-hearted girl skitter gracefully away across the cobblestones.

Noting the show’s timely themes, Times television critic Robert Lloyd called it a “perfectly decent, good-hearted, unsurprisingly sentimental miniseries” in his review.

Now, as civil rights are being beaten back to … backwardness by small-minded politicians, there’s a timely element to this perfectly decent, good-hearted, unsurprisingly sentimental miniseries.
