1Think a costume drama based on an Creator/ElizabethGaskell series can't have some chilling moments? Think again.

3* The explosion that [[spoiler: kills Mr. Carter]] is terrifying for how ''sudden'' it is. One minute Mr. Carter and Captain Brown are talking and everything seems to be fine, and then...
4* The amputation is utterly nauseating. First we see Dr. Harrison take out a saw, and then Mr. Carter screams... Even worse if a viewer knows anything about amputations [[TruthInTelevision at the time]].
5* Earlier, Jem's injury. We get some [[SarcasmMode delightful]] glimpses of the broken bone sticking out of the wound, and then when Dr. Harrison sets the bone, Jem gives a bloodcurdling scream.
6* Dr. Morgan's attempts to cure Sophy only make her fever worse, and Dr. Harrison knows this is happening but can do nothing about it.
