Season 1 Review:
A powerful Masterpiece movie that bridges generations with its tale of repressed and forbidden affections. [11 - 24 Jun 2018, p.13]

Season 1 Review:
I was afraid the message of “Man in an Orange Shirt” would be simplistic--being gay was hard then, but it’s easy now, look how far we’ve come, etc. But the film, strewn with symbols that carry from one story to the other, has other things in mind, and they make it distinctly moving.

Season 1 Review:
The film moves on two generations to another era, our own--and regrettably, for the most part, except for the luminous presence of Vanessa Redgrave, extraordinary as Flora, now grown old. ...
