Featured review
An acting masterclass
The story is solid if somewhat too labyrinthine.
There is an excellent supporting cast with Helen Behan & Nell Williams putting in very strong performances.
Then there is Glenda Jackson wow! Utterly compelling and absolutely plausible, if this had seen higher investment and a cinematic release she'd have the Oscar in the bag! You might need a handkerchief to discreetly dab if you find your face unexpectedly leaking.
It is commendable that BBC is commissioning programmes of such high quality.
