The Sister

Rather surprised by all the bad reviews here as my wife and I thoroughly enjoyed The Sister, a slow burning, creepy 4 part serial. Perhaps it's because viewers seem to be impatient today judging by the fast editing of many movies now. The Sister is perhaps old fashioned telly but we enjoyed Russell Tovey and Bertie Carvell's chemistry together. Mostly expressionless Russell and Fagin-like Bertie rather appealed to us, at least it kept us wanting to see the next episode. It's all a bit ghoulies and ghosties and things that go bump in the night but we liked that. I'll not say more in case you're planning to watch on a recording or re-run but if you're a patient viewer and like creepy plot lines, give it a go.
