Next to Anne Lister in Gentleman Jack, the role of Ruth Slater in UNFORGIVEN is Suranne Jones' most brilliant, emotionally honest and affecting performance of her career. Exceptional character creation and storylines by Sally Wainwright do not disappoint. A triangle of 3 sisters drives the core drama which unfolds over 3 episodes. In counterpoint is the story of two brothers left fatherless by a tragic event that remains a secret for fifteen years. The repercussions of violence and how its aftermath spreads through the lives of the principal characters is presented with great skill by Wainwright. Suranne's performance is not to be missed!
