I enjoyed it, I'm so glad the BBC still has the confidence to produce something like this for a prime time Sunday slot. Superb production values, great costumes etc. Very well acted with all performing well, Dougray Scott and Jessie Buckley both showing their natural presence. I'm struck by the closeness to the text, although I'm sure in the current climate, with constant reinterpretations and changes that there'll be some tampering, however, the core story is delivered. The production team have done a fabulous job in creating the creepy, gothic, almost sinister atmosphere. Wilkie Collins classic tale is known by many, how good though that this masterpiece of storytelling will be given to a brand new audience. BBC I applaud you for having the courage to produce and put out something that can hardly be classed as mainstream.
