    A drama that deserves all the awards!

    This is a riveting drama and superb acting from all the cast, extremely well written with characters you really get to know and appreciate for who they are or pretend to be. It does not shy away from controversy either and handles the prejudices of the characters with both touching realism tinged with humour and sadness. Lennie James simply surpasses himself in his portrayal of a closeted gay man who is caught between his family and secret lover and understandable split loyalties. Set in the London Borough of Hackney and on the Island of Antigua, I cannot recommend this drama highly enough. Enjoy!

    Emotional and Thought Provoking series

    My Review- Mr Loverman Streaming on Foxtel My Rating 9/10

    Each episode of this unusual and thought provoking 8 part series begins with a famous literary quote.

    The first episode quotes James Baldwin "Not everything that is faced can be changed, but nothing can be changed until it is faced." The final episode opens with "People pay more for what they do, and still more for what they have allowed themselves to become. And they pay for it very simply; by the lives they lead.".

    The journey from the first to the final episode is emotional, funny and l think authentic in the way it portrays the consequences of choices that we all make in life .

    The Mr Loverman or central character Barrington or Barry Walker referred to in the title is so skillfully played by Lennie James who deservedly won this years BAFTA award for Best TV actor.

    Barry is a dapper narcissistic 74 year old British Caribbean man going through a turning point crisis in his 50 year marriage to Carmel also played superbly by Sharon D. Clarke.

    Sharon and Barry obviously are miserable together after raising their 2 daughters Maxine and Donna basically living separate lives always emotionally at odds with each other.

    Carmel accuses Barry when he returns home drunk of sleeping around with prostitutes however in reality her husband has had a male lover known to the family for years as Uncle Morris.

    Ariyon Bakare who plays Barry'S lover Morris Del La Roux also deserved his BAFTA as supporting actor.

    Only the Brits could portray this story of a middle class black family and their community that instead of focusing on race relations focuses on the secrets and deception of a modern marriage that any family of any colour could go through.

    Decades after homosexuality was legalised in Britain Morris and his closeted lover Barry are also at a crossroads in their relationship that begun in their youth in Antigua, a Caribbean island.

    Morris is now out of the closet but Barry's internalised homophobia and his alcohol abuse keeps him in denial about his true sexuality.

    Every character in this series I found interesting especially the women in Barry's life including his daughters Maxine and Donna played by Tamara Lawrance and Sharlene Whyte .

    Both daughters are very different in their tolerance and affection for their father. Maxine is the younger more worldly daughter while Donna is a chip off her mother's block a stubborn perfectionist.

    Special mention of Tahj Miles who plays Daniel Barry's grandson and Donna Walkers only son .

    Daniel is a young man preparing to go to university and is grappling with his own anxieties alongside his exciting future.

    It's an unusual experience these days for me to be so impressed with a series and congratulations to Cambodian Director Hong Khaou and screenwriter Nathaniel Price who has adapted Bernardine Evaristo'z novel and produced such a contemporary and thoughtful series.

    Brilliant from start to finish

    The delicate storyline was handled brilliantly ... the acting was superb and camera angles and filming spot on to create the right mood and intrigue. I loved every minute of this series and was bereft when it ended as wanted to find out how the characters continued their story. Must see.

    It's a tricky storyline that could challenge certain cultures and generations but was beautifully handled. It had me both crying and laughing. The flash backs to the past were so believable using a strong cast, clever make up and costume. This series should win awards in my opinion - never seen anything quite like it

    Sublime performances from Lennie James and Sharon D Clarke

    Mr Loverman is a thought-provoking, deeply moving drama that explores historic and changing attitudes to gay relationships within the Afro Caribbean community in Britain. But it is much more than that - it is about love in all its guises and about the importance of identity and being true to yourself no matter what culture or community you are brought up in. Lennie James and Sharon D Clarke deserve to win every award going for their stunning performances. In fact, every character in this brilliant drama is beautifully portrayed and I cannot recommend it highly enough. More like this please BBC!

    What Is Grief, If Not Love Persevering?

    Mr. Loverman is a heartfelt, character-driven drama that masterfully explores love, identity, and the deep regrets of living a life in secrecy. Lennie James delivers a standout performance as Barry Walker, a 74-year-old gay Black man torn between his long-time marriage and his true love, Morris, played by Ariyon Bakare. Sharon D. Clarke shines as Barry's wife, Carmel, bringing depth to a woman who has silently endured years of betrayal. The series is a rare portrayal of elderly Black gay love, delving into the emotional and societal costs of inauthenticity.

    Set against the vibrant backdrop of Hackney, London, the show immerses us in the complexity of Barry's life, touching on themes of homophobia, misogyny, and intergenerational conflict. The flashbacks, showing Barry's and Morris's painful past in both Antigua and the UK, underscore the heavy trauma they carry. While updated to reflect modern-day issues like gentrification and same-sex marriage, the series stays true to its roots in examining the difficulties of coming out, especially within the Black community.

    Despite some clunky dialogue and underdeveloped supporting characters, Mr. Loverman excels in capturing the emotional tension between Barry, Morris, and Carmel. The chemistry between James and Bakare is palpable, making their hidden relationship all the more poignant. Meanwhile, the strained dynamic between Barry and Carmel is both heartbreaking and raw, showcasing the bitter toll of deception.

    The show bravely addresses the struggles of being an old, gay Black man, particularly through scenes where Barry grapples with violent memories and societal rejection. It highlights not only the personal cost of living inauthentically but also the enduring resilience of love.

    Series is a necessary, timely exploration of Black queer love, and its sincere, thought-provoking approach will resonate with viewers seeking a more nuanced story of love, self-acceptance, and the courage to live truthfully.
