From IMDB: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0123351
"The life, loves and adventures of the charming rascal Tom Jones, a foundling child born of a serving wench but allowed to grow up in the privileged surroundings of Squire Allworthy's household. This position allows him to grow up with, make the acquaintance of and eventually fall in love with the beautiful daughter of his wealthy neighbor, Sophia Western. However, the path to true love rarely runs smoothly, and family pressure, the difference in their parentage and 18th-century social customs prevent the young lovers from being together. Eventually both are forced out of their gentile, protected surroundings and into the great wide world to see what adventures real life might bring."

These episodes all have edited "soft" English captions; that is, English subtitles are part of the MKV files and the subtitles can be enabled or disabled as you wish.

I ripped the original DVD set and derived the subtitles by OCR, then...
- Used Subtitle Edit (by Nikolaj Lynge Olsson) to find and fix all flagged issues
- Added 0.7 second to each subtitle (where possible) to allow more time to read them and adjusted words/minute to at least 280
- Naturalized the English phrasing to retain fluid grammar by reducing sentence-initial conjunctions
- Changed the color of correspondence (read aloud) to salmon, and italicized most dialog when it is off-screen
- Used Handbrake to create new MKV files using my subtitles

Note that there is brief male and female frontal nudity, and some clothed sex, in various parts of this miniseries.
