I don't understand how anyone who has watched this show can rate it anything else but a 10.
Quite simply it is a masterclass in efficient, involving, gripping, emotive, thrilling storytelling.
The acting, partic from Ms Lancashire, but also the rest of the accomplished ensemble is absolutely top notch.
Sally Wainwright, alongside RTD is the finest writer of her generation and one of the best the UK has ever produced.
No cash cow grabbing. They waited for 7 years before the final season, just to the child actor could grow up and the storyline could be believable. They didn't try to fit in another useless 6 seasons in the interim. They had a vision for the story from the start, and delivered only that over 9 years and 18 episodes.
Astounding tv.
