"Ma really likes Reverend Candy from the moment she meets him," said Joanna Scanlan. "She thinks he's got a lot going for him, so when Primrose falls for him, and of course he's very fall-able for, Ma really wants that to work out."

But there's a slight problem...
"Unfortunately, because Reverend Candy's quite a thoughtful person and Primrose is quite a thoughtful person, they both find it very difficult to just say how they feel, and Ma feels slightly irritated that they don't just get on with it," added Scanlan.
The actor also teased "pretty cataclysmic" events in season 2.
"The kaleidoscope turns and we see a new shape of family," she said.
Executive producer and writer Simon Nye echoed that: "The bountiful nature of the Larkins is tested beyond endurance and it gets quite unpleasant, quite vicious. People are having their lives turned around and Pop and Ma are obviously very protective of their family, their kids, their village."
