What an astounding tour de force - Gemma Arterton is simply astonishing and owns every second on screen.
A rags to riches tale of nostalgia and the golden era of tv. Funny touching and always endearing without becoming treacly.
I am hoping that the 6 episodes are not the only time we get to see the life of Sophie Straw/Barbara Parker & the crazy 60' world of showbiz and it's characters.
I seriously believe that Miss Arterton has announced to the world that she is here to stay and her stay is on the rise again after her performances in this excellent show. A huge success and a great adaptation of a Nick Hornsby novel.
