Andrew Davies was confirmed to be working on the script. Beginning in London in 1908, during a time period when women were enjoying an ever - increasing amount of freedom, it tells the story of Harry Gordon Selfridge, the founder of Selfridges department store and includes members of his family, particularly his wife Rose Selfridge. It was originally planned to be screened in 2012. However, it is claimed that ITV was forced to push back airing the drama due to rival BBC airing a similarly themed drama series The Paradise. A set to the north of London was built to house a replica of the 1909 Selfridge 's store interior. The exterior of the store was recreated in The Historic Dockyard Chatham, in Kent. The disused Aldwych tube station was used to film Rose Selfridge travelling on the London Underground and scenes in the first episode featuring Victor Colleano, Agnes Towler and her brother George. On 8 February 2013, ITV announced Mr Selfridge had been commissioned for a second series of ten episodes, to start on 19 January 2014. Anthony Byrne, who directed three episodes of series one, returned to direct some of the new episodes. On 22 July 2013, PBS also purchased a second series that aired in 2014 as part of its Masterpiece Classic. The second series is set in 1914 and portrays the consequence of World War I to the store and staff. On 21 February 2014, it was announced that Mr. Selfridge had been renewed for a third series, to air in 2015. On 13 March 2015, ITV announced Mr Selfridge had been commissioned for a new 10 - part fourth series. Casting An American casting director was employed to find an actor suitable to play Harry Selfridge. Jeremy Piven 's agent informed him of the role. Producer Chrissy Skinns and director Jon Jones met Piven in Los Angeles and were impressed by his understanding of the character. Executive producer Kate Lewis was `` thrilled to attract '' Frances O'Connor to the role of Rose Selfridge because she had long been a fan of the actress. Former Coronation Street actress Katherine Kelly signed up to play Lady Mae Loxley and returned for Series 2. The casting of the trio was announced in March 2012 alongside Grégory Fitoussi ( Henri Leclair ), Aisling Loftus ( Agnes Towler ), Zoe Tapper ( Ellen Love ) and Trystan Gravelle ( Victor Colleano ).

Reception In a poll hosted by MSN more than 80 % of readers said they would continue watching the show following the first episode. Phil Hogan writing for The Guardian bemoaned the story development. He observed that there is `` so much crisis with so little drama ''. The Daily Mail 's Ian Hyland was impressed with the series and praised the performances of Piven, Tapper and Loftus. Ross Sweeney from Cultbox said that the show had direction but lacked `` actual substance and any real surprises ''. He praised the costume designers for their `` astonishing attention to detail ''. Susanna Lazarus of the Radio Times opined that the character 's earnestness detracted from the realism of the story. She added the female cast created the `` plot tension '' needed to maintain viewership. Gabriel Tate of Time Out branded it an unsubtle, daft series with glorious production values but felt it was `` ideal escapism for a Sunday night ''. He also stated that the character of Agnes Towler was `` the heart of the show ''. Benjamin Secher from The Daily Telegraph said that Mr Selfridge is a `` less cosy, more charismatic '' production of The Paradise. A `` sumptuous, frothy drama '' and `` entertaining spectacle '', but ultimately Secher did not believe the story. MSN critic Dan Owen branded it `` sumptuous Sunday evening viewing ''. He thought the `` wonderful '' sets and costumes were better than those featured in fellow period drama Downton Abbey.
