Dickensian

I think it's a totally original and powerful series that actually magnetizes you from the first episode to the last one. Amazing interpretations, beautiful and appropriate costumes and scenery and generally very careful work at every point. Congratulations to all contributors, thank you!

It would have been delightful to enjoy the well-rounded Dickensian characters again this Christmas. Instead we have been bombarded with repeats of dramas seen several times already. What has happened to this wonderful series?

Amazing show! Got so drawn in & wrapped up in characters, realizing it was over after Season 1 was a rude slap in the face. Well worth watching, but leaces you wanting more.

Well done BBC. I was hesitant at first because I was worried about the tampering of Charles Dickens amazing work and especially over a story that combines many of his characters from other books into a murder mystery. The dialogue was as if Dickens himself wrote it and I believe he would have enjoyed it as much as I did.

Kept me wanting more, numerous story arcs going throughout the 10 hours and all were brought to a close by the end... I started to give it a 7 because I didn't really like the way a couple of them ended, especially with Honoria, but decided I couldn't budge from an 8. Great cast across the board. Rea and Rundle were very good, but Middleton was fantastic. I saw her in Sense8 and realized what a terrific actress she was (much better than rest of cast) but this showed what incredible range she has when contrasting her two characters....this certainly showcased her beauty as well. Stunning. As English period pieces go this was another great one. The Brits just do them so much better.
