Miniseries Reviews
Pajiba
Sam Moore
One of the most fascinating, slightly tragic things about "Scandal" is that it's unable to offer a cure for these ills; that all it can provide is a diagnosis.
Salon.com
Melanie McFarland
This provides Foy and Bettany strong planks upon which to build arresting performances. What it's missing, however, is any lightness of spirit, whiff of humor or much proof that this case is singularly "British" aside from its locale.
The Hollywood Reporter
Daniel Fienberg
It isn't as pleasurable as A Very English Scandal, nor does it cut as deep, even if Bettany and Foy are entirely worth watching and some of the modern echoes hit home.
Boston Globe
Matthew Gilbert
An entertaining, beautifully filmed, and dynamically acted portrait of the tumultuous and infamous marriage of Margaret Sweeney and Captain Ian Campbell.
Under the Radar
Lily Moayeri
That message still comes across, but it is packaged in such a tantalizing way that the three hours of the series simply fly by, at which point, it's understandable if you want to press replay.
Decider
Joel Keller
A Very British Scandal benefits from fine performances and a scandalous story that touches both on early feminism and salacious scandal.
What She Said
Anne Brodie
You may need to take a nice long walk in the fresh air after to loosen its mighty grip.
Entertainment Weekly
Kristen Baldwin
There's no lack of frisson between Claire Foy and Paul Bettany, who bring equally compelling heat to Margaret and Ian's alternating periods of lustful connection and loathsome mutual abuse.
Wall Street Journal
John Anderson
Mr. Bettany and Ms. Foy are given a wealth of snarky dialogue to deliver as the Argyll-Argyll romance goes the way of the Spanish Armada, and director Anne Sewitsky breaks free of the customary BBC dramaturgy.
TV Insider
Matt Roush
This taut and tawdry three-part docudrama from the prolific Sarah Phelps depicts in great histrionic detail the infamous divorce of the Duke and Duchess of Argyll in the early 1960s.
SSG Syndicate
Susan Granger
Sordid sex scandal re-visited - sans humor - but with impressive performances by Claire Foy and Paul Bettany.
Paste Magazine
Allison Keene
A Very British Scandal is a dull, lifeless retelling that wants very badly to say something but delivers little more than banal cruelty from the extremely wealth.
The Playlist
Marah Eakin
"A Very British Scandal" is well shot, well-acted, and Scotland looks lovely, but the show doesn't really tell us anything about life in '50s and '60s Britain that we couldn't have already guessed.
Variety
Amber Dowling
A well-paced romp in which the action never lingers but it also never quite digs as deep as you'd hope, which may be both the luxury and the limitation of recreating a story of this magnitude: You're always left wanting more.
