Title: Gentleman Jack
Review: Jones is a Tour de Force in this lush period piece set in 1832 in Halifax, Scotland in the story of Ann Lister’s and her dangerous and remarkable liaisons with other woman in the staid Victoria era. This is classic BBC fare but tackles a tricky subject, for the times, in a thoughtful and, at times, quite witty, manner. Good character development, wonderful cinematography and costumes and captures the essence of the times. Season two is in production and should be out soon.
