Sherwood: TV drama hailed by critics after final episode

Apr 18,2020 8:44 pm

Crime drama Sherwood drew to a close on Tuesday, with one critic describing it as " The Best BBC drama of the year".

The Show , starring Lesley Manville and David Morrissey , centres around The Hunt for a killer tormenting a fractured Nottinghamshire community.

It has had glowing reviews, and The Bbc announced on Wednesday that a second series has been commissioned.

's five-star review of the finale said The Show was " authentic, devastating and perfectly cast".

The Paper 's critic Alex Diggins wrote: "2022 has been a purple patch for grown-up, serious drama on The Bbc .

" The Tourist , The Responder and This is Going to Hurt were all excellent. But in the clarity of its storytelling, and the authenticity of its atmosphere, Sherwood split the bullseye: The Best BBC drama of the year So Far , and I'd hazard some time to come.

" No wonder it's just been recommissioned for a second series. "

Two murders and the toxic legacy of a dispute that drove families apart lie at The Heart of the drama, which was inspired by real-life events in writer James Graham 's Home Town .

It Follows two police officers in a mining village still scarred by the divisions laid down during the miners' strike decades earlier.

Diggins added that Nottinghamshire-born Graham's " story of murder, scabs and Old Wounds has proved to be so much More Than a simple crime drama".

The Show , He Said , contains " ringing echoes" of the mythology of Robin Hood , and, moreover, " believable people, in a believable world, broken on The Rack of history and their own mistakes".

seemed to agree, also offering five-stars. Lucy Mangan wrote that the " gloriously directed, superbly written ending was quietly devastating".

She Said : " The entire cast has been rightly and unanimously lauded.

" Sherwood has been stuffed with the unquestionable Best Of A Generation of British acting talent in Manville, Morrissey, Lorraine Ashbourne (who gets all The Work she deserves But not always The Glory - despite never failing to convince absolutely every moment she's on screen) and those filling every other main role.

" They all had a fine script to work with and glorious direction that made it even More Than the sum of its parts. Every arrow found its mark. "

Reviewing the penultimate episode of the Bbc One show the previous evening, however, the was less impressed, offering only two-stars.

" Sherwood has been a disappointment, with storylines as flat as the beer, " wrote Christopher Stephens, referencing the Working Men 's club in The Show .

" The Cast is outstanding, crammed with more top actors than a Harry Potter movie. But even the talents of Lorraine Ashbourne , Mark Addy , Pip Torrens , Adeel Akhtar , David Morrissey and Robert Glenister can't Cover Up the yawning illogicalities in The Plot . "

His paper The Show as " utterly compelling".

As The Bbc announced that filming for series two would commence next year, Graham said he had been " so deeply moved by the response to Sherwood".

" These stories come from my home, and I want to specifically express gratitude To My community for whom I know these subjects can be difficult, But - I Hope - important ones to explore, " He Said .

Morrissey said it had been " a wonderful ride".
