New series with Suranne Jones. Was expecting to hate it but thought it surprisingly good. Anyone else watch it?

You can call me what you like lol :)
Yeah...I watched it. Thought it was OK, worth watching the next one.

Morning ummmm! Yeh I was rolling my eyes when it started but was pleasantly surprised.
It did get better.

Any idea how many episodes in the series?
I don't know. I tend to watch TV on catch up.

No excuse lol
There are 8 episodes.
I have watched half of it, and I would say it is OK, but not great.
Possible spoiler alert.

Hasn't made Oz telly yet but apparently it was originally titled Shibden Hall which caught my interest because a piece of furniture made by my great grandfather is on display there.

ps: That's my only claim to fame

It’s better than I expected
The BBC did this story in 2012 with Maxine Peake as Anne Lister.

That was excellent, so I was expecting to like ‘Gentleman Jack’, but felt disappointed by it.

I don’t think I watched that
I like Suranne Jones. I think she's a great actor.

It usually takes me a couple of episodes to get into something.
I watched about half of it and then turned the television off altogether.
