As handsome as the production is, the nature of Boyd's novel makes the miniseries episodic, and the tone of those encounters tends to be highly uneven. While experiencing abundant tragedy in his life, the protagonist's vulnerability doesn't translate very well in carrying the story, even with such a stalwart trio of actors playing him.

Though not up to the usual Masterpiece standard, Any Human Heart is generally well-made and entertaining.And it's always a joy to watch Jim Broadbent.

As a Brit who uses this website frequently, one of the things that i find odd is how fast and loose PBS are with the word "Masterpiece". This is one of those occasions. It's a dull, lazy, derivative period piece that flatters to deceive.
