Cecily King - Harmony Cramp and Molly Atkinson
Cecily contracted Tuberculosis in the fifth season and went to a sanitarium in a New York. Unfortunately she played a somewhat minor role in the first 4 seasons of the show. Her character was developed more as the series progressed.Cecily also had a major role in Happy Christmas Miss King. We put her first because we feel that she was the most under estimated character.  Our favorite episodes with Cecily are Home coming and Thursdays Child

Felix King - Zachery Bennett
Played the oldest boy within the King family he was the trouble maker of the group.  He had many adventures with Sarah Stanley.  Our favorite episodes with Felix were Love may be blind....,  True Confessions, and Dark and Stormy Night.  Felix's  character became increasingly different  in the last episodes. In Happy Christmas Miss King he is MIA in World War I but we won't give away the ending to any of you who have yet to see it. We hope to see Felix and Izzy together in a future sequel.

Felicity King Pike- Gema Zamprogna
Felicity is the oldest of the King children.  She married Gus Pike in the Series Finale.  She went to medical school but chose against pursueing a career in medicine.

Alec King - Cedric Smith
The father of Kings, head of the family and a farmer.

Not our favorite character, Hetty was an opinionated, and over bearing woman. But she was a very important and main character in the series. Our favorite episodes with Hetty were, Momento Mori, A Mothers Love, and Evelyn.  Are least favorite episodes with Hetty in them are Lonely Hearts, and (?) the episode where Simon and Hetty decided to get married.  UUhhh so nasty.  We were dissapointed to see that Sullivan wasted two of the final episodes on that and the one where Aunt Elizas cousin dying.
