Capturing Mary

A superb follow up to Joe's Palace, Danny Lee Wynter had done a great job bringing Joe to life and giving the house a strong character. Those characters once again combine and tell a totally different story, so different in tone to Joe's Palace.

Visually sublime, it's a drama that makes you think outside the box, it doesn't conform to any of the usual rules, it isn't confined by today's classifications. It's just Stephen Poliakoff doing what he does best, making you lose yourself in a story.

It manages to be both creepy and engaging. I've always been a fan of David Walliams, but in this serious, slightly odd role, he gave what I see as his finest performance, he's charismatic, somewhat unnerving, quietly chilling. When Maggie Smith is on screen you can't help but watch in awe, she is outstanding, as is Ruth Wilson as her younger self.

Mr Poliakoff you've done it again. This was exceptional, 9/10.
