9/10
Warm, witty and wise - a pleasure to watch.
24 February 2021
This series features some of the best British actors alive today. I adored Paul Rhys as Charles Stringham, Jonathan Cake as Simon Templer and Edward Fox as Uncle Giles. Oliver Ford Davis and Simon Russell Beale are both hilarious and Miranda Richardson and Claire Skinner are both adorable. The characters in the later years aren't quite as good as the School years and the War years. I haven't given it the full 10 out of 10 because the last couple of episodes do have some very far fetched stories that aren't quite on the money. But that said, I've watched and re-watched this series and I think it's moving, funny and delightful. If you liked Brideshead Revisited then you'll love this.
