Chronology
Coincidentally, Aidan Turner has previously filmed at Chavenage House (The Priory in Rivals). The same filming location was also used to portray Trenwith House in the 2015 BBC TV adaptation of Poldark.. A very easy and bingeable watch, thoroughly enjoyable. Great characters, storylines, drama and 80s music to sing along to. David Tennant again plays a fantastic antagonist. Aidan Turner is amazing as always. The cast clearly had a blast filming this and it comes through in the series. So many talented actors and actresses in one programme. The series starts off comical and gets more dramatic as the episodes go on. The series has remained faithful to the book and the nature of the 80s. The characters are enjoyable and easy to become invested in. I ended each episode wanting to watch more right the way until the end. Hoping for season 2!
