    The Lady makes a compelling true crime story into a compelling drama through the performances by both McKenna-Bruce and Dormer, who try hard to make their famous characters nuanced and real.

    Ultimately, this is a true crime story done the ITV way: propulsive, bingeable, entertaining, not too deep.

    It is expertly put together and, at times, oddly moving and powerful.
