QUESTION
If zero sex scenes is a hard requirement, then yes — stick to period dramas that are known for being very mild in that area. From the list I gave, the safest starting points are Cranford, Lark Rise to Candleford, All Creatures Great and Small, and many Little Women adaptations.
I can give you a stricter shortlist that avoids sex scenes entirely.
Zero-sex-scenes only
Best if you want the safest possible option and do not want to check each title individually.
I can keep a broader list that is still very gentle but may include occasional brief implied romance or off-screen references.
Mostly clean, with mild implied content allowed
Best if you care more about overall tone than absolute zero-content filtering.
