The Council of the small English town of Pagford are set to vote on the future of Sweethope House, either a luxury spa, or a community Centre. The vote is swung by solicitor Barry Fairbrother, but when he dies, a casual vacancy arises.
Every action has consequences.
Another piece of magic from the magical mind of JK Rowling. It's almost impossible to explain what it is, as it's so complex, it's part fantasy, part character study, part tragedy.
There are so many strands, so much going on, but it all ties together superbly. If you watched it, and didn't like it first time round, give it another go.
The third episode is incredible, it's a staggeringly good piece of television, the final act is devastating, one to have you in floods of tears.
Superbly acted from start to finish, this features an incredible cast, and there are some sensational performances, Abigail Lawrie steals it for me, Krystal is a fascinating character, and Julia McKenzie is fabulous, seeing her play such a nasty lady, truly against type.
10/10.
