North and South	comment	An 1855 novel by Elizabeth Gaskell. It's thematically similar to her first novel, Mary Barton.After Richard Hale, a minister, leaves the Church of England, the Hale family moves from the genteel South of England to the industrial North. The story deals with clashes between the cultures of North and South, the workers and their masters, and between protagonist Margaret Hale and the wealthy local factory owner John Thornton.The book has thrice been adapted for television, most recently in 2004, starring Daniela Denby-Ashe and Richard Armitage. Although it was poorly publicised, it was a surprise smash hit with BBC viewers, who ended up crashing the BBC website with massive amounts of rave comments.Not to be confused with the John Jakes trilogy of novels and miniseries of the same name (which starred Patrick Swayze), set in and around the era of the American Civil War. Or the Strategy/Action video game.

Margaret misses the flirtations that Henry Lennox sends her way when he visits her in Helstone, flirtations that he is sure a London girl would understand. Margaret only saw Henry Lennox as a friend and is disappointed and annoyed when he confesses to her. When John Thornton confesses to her, she is surprised and offended. It takes her several months of introspection after leaving Milton to understand her own feelings for Mr. Thornton, and why she worries so much over his opinions of her.

North and South / int_dbd2c15e	comment	Everyone Can See It: The town clearly sees the affection Thornton and Margaret have for each other, especially after Margaret bodily protects Thornton from the riot. Subverted in that Margaret later insists that she meant nothing romantic by the gesture, and merely felt guilty about forcing him out to face the mob. Mr. Bell sees it the first time he sees the two in a room together.

North and South / int_dca70c44	comment	Reasonable Authority Figure: Thornton, despite being introduced to the audience in the 2004 adaptation beating up a mill worker, is actually an example of this. The mill worker had been lighting a smoke in the cotton dust filled mill, an action akin to juggling guns in a munitions factory. Later conversations revealed that he had also made an effort to install a cotton dust extractor in the mill to reduce lung disease in his employees.

When Dixon lets slip some unkind words about Mr. Hale for their being in Milton, Margaret scolds her to remind her of her place in the family.
