So technically this is 4- episode mini series... I haven't read the source material, yet the story feels familiar. Probably because this a blue print for mixed class romance, featured for example in S4 of bridgerton (mixed with Cinderella). Costumes and flowery meadows are one of best highlights here, especially 20s flappers and costume party in last episode. The scene with rain and flower crowns is really the best. This doesn't had the same boldness unlike "women in love" (sharing both writer of the book and director), yet delivers the same message almost. However this one is more of "caught in the feeling" between class wars and some mortality. You can imagine how it ends...or not really. Overall adaptation feels almost solid, but lacks deeper themes and feels quite lengthy. Source material remains timeless forbidden romance. Definitely of earlier Sean Bean performance to date and a good one (rare not dying one). Watching without subtitles felt like sport sometimes...
