Aug 14, 2021This show is evidence that something can be both pretentious and boring at the same time. A tightwire act achieved by a combination of hammy actors, bad direction and awful pacing

Some of the script was a little clunky – Fanny’s status as an outsider was rather overdone – and there were signs that the characters had been given an unnecessary feminist makeover (Fanny lectured Linda about female ambition). But when something is such extraordinarily good fun, it feels churlish to nitpick too much.

Each episode was a joy and a pleasure to watch – and when it comes to Sunday night TV, you can’t ask for more than that.

Scott is a joy to watch; he is consistently, convincingly vivacious—the embodiment of Mitford charm. ... This is a period drama that makes fun of its period’s stuffiness, playing on its stilted conventions. ... The adaptation is also funny, and not shy, on certain unflattering truths regarding motherhood.
