I also liked it. All the acting is great, including Frances de la Tour and Vanessa Redgrave. It must have been difficult for Redgrave to play such a conservative, anti-gay character who had to spew rather horrible language. But she is an actress after all. At my age it is still hard to be comfortable with all the male-to-male bonding on television. It was ironic however that they still had to put a "warning" regarding some of the "disturbing" contents at the beginning of the program. I wonder if that was just in America or if it also had to be shown in the BBC's version?
