Gentleman Jack - Kritiken

It’s intimate and welcoming, with cozy settings by crackling fireplaces, and warm interiors of carriages and estates upon the misty Yorkshire Dales.

Sally Wainwright has turned Anne Lister’s diary into a thrilling coal-town romp that flirts with parody.

...en frisk fläkt i kostymdrama-miljö.

Styrkan ligger [...] i det rasande höga tempot, [...] och den fascinerande berättelsen om industrialismens framväxt och kvinnors hemliga liv i början av 1800-talet...

Jaunty, sexy, and blessed with a magnetically charismatic lead in Jones...

Sally Wainwright’s lesbian period drama is back with new energy – but the show hasn’t lost its heart and soul.

Love in peril, beautiful vistas, a witty script, and the Olympic speed-walking of Jones as 'Britain’s first modern lesbian' – Jack's back!

...who knew art still had such power?

...a triumph of wiry wit, unsentimental empathy and, above all, sheer force of personality, projected with total confidence.

...one of the greatest British period dramas of our time.

...sprudler af liv, når den gør kærligt grin med bedagede kønsnormer og det simple liv på landet.

Suranne Jones gör en av årets häftigaste rolltolkningar som Anne Lister...

...et underholdende 1800-tals-drama om en kvinde, der førte sig frem som en mand.
