I was a bit apprehensive after reading the reviews but was blown away. As a lover of the book, I think it gets the humour and the edginess just right. It shows that the author of the book is involved.
I love that they clash from the start and it's not all plain sailing. It isn't a romantic comedy that many of the critics seemed to expect!
Rose portrays the fieriness and doubts perfectly and Theo balances the humour and the fear so well, the contrast between the older and the younger Henry is visible even in the body language. Moffat's dialogues are so good. The chemistry and the banter is spot on.
The only thing I didn't like was Henry's oldest make-up and that I have to wait another week for another episode!
