We’re at the end of this Sally Wainwright-penned Suranne Jones-starring mini-series Unforgiven already, and since everything has to happen in the next 45 minutes, I am assuming it will be jam-packed and we should get right to it. Can you believe there are series that last 7-8 times longer?? 23 episodes and it’s all chafe-y and NOBODY’S having any fun. Rolling after the break!
Welcome back to Unforgiven with the sublime Suranne Jones! Funny story: I typically have a really good memory (not for important stuff, just like who said what 3 and a half years ago in a chat room in a conversation I wasn’t involved in kinda way) so maybe I get a little…lazy about making sure about stuff. Like this show. I got UnFORGIVEN mixed up with UnFORGOTTEN, which a few people had recommended and which stars Gillian Nicola Walker from Last Tango in Halifax and River. Now I have two shows to do, yay! It’s like that one time I thought Sally Wainwright wrote Doctor Foster because I mixed up words on Twitter and didn’t check because I have this memory, see? I wrote a whole intro about Gillian Nicola Walker on the first Unforgiven episode and had to scrap it because I couldn’t confirm her in IMdB. And now I know why. Rolling UnFORGIVEN after the break!
Hi there! I’m TalksTooMuch and I’ll be recapping Unforgiven for your reading pleasure! You’ll figure out my handle soon enough if you haven’t already experienced the joy of my overwritten recaps for Happy Valley, Last Tango in Halifax and many, many other Sally Wainwright and / or Sarah Lancashire shows! I’m not obsessed! There are others, too, honest! Say maybe Doctor Foster also starring Surranne Jones, or River with Nicola Walker. Rolling S1:E1 of Unforgiven after the break:
