Wolferton Splash (S01E01)

The first episode brought very high-quality drama with solid acting performances. The biggest surprise for me was John Lithgow, I couldn't imagine him as Winston Churchill before watching this episode, and he plays his character absolutely brilliantly. (24/01/2017)

A superbly filmed introduction to a universally acclaimed and highly regarded series. Lavish sets and costumes, a quality cast and a meaningful plot, plus an emotional tug at the viewer. So far, a very good mix of depictions of traditional English gentility, whose decadence and grittiness is wrapped in a great craft of modern filmmaking that even fans of Netflix pop can handle.
