Anyone catch this short (movie-length) miniseries that just released on Prime?
97% on RT and the best thing I've seen this year, next to Paddington 2, which also starred these two hotties:
Reviews:
The Hollywood Reporter: 5/5
"Amazon's thoroughly winning, shocking and funny miniseries from the BBC, Stephen Frears and Russell T. Davies has to be seen to be believed... one of the tightest and brightest and most sublime miniseries — running at a meager three hours, one hour per episode — that you're likely to see on television in 2018"
New York Times: Pick of the Week
"A Very English Scandal" is a dazzling three hours and in pace and potency puts "The Crown" to shame."
NPR:
"As a playground for Whishaw and Grant, A Very English Scandal soars. The actors starred together in Paddington 2, of course, and over and above its manifold delights, it's fun to imagine this mini-series as a kind of alternate-universe sequel".
Directed by Stephen Frears and written by Russel T Davies (Dr Who, Torchwood).
Looked kinda dry and lame from the trailer, but it's from the same director as High Fidelity and really entertaining.
Hands down the most touching and funny/entertaining show on "TV" this year. I'm not sure how it manages to be both, but it is. Anyone check it out?
