Happy Valley [View all]

"At the center of the story is police sergeant Catherine Cawood, a middle-aged, tough-as-nails woman with a tragic backstory and an itch for revenge. She’s played by Sarah Lancashire who, I must say, gives one of the best performances of any actor I’ve seen on any television show in my entire life. I cannot properly express the sheer brilliance of Lancashire’s work on this show. Her range is extraordinary."

So writes Erik Kain of Forbes. I agree with him.

Sarah Lancashire became one of my favorites as I watched Last Tango in Halifax, which also showcases her skill and sincerity amid a fun and very talented cast. (Do watch this comedy/drama, which has the added bonus of Nicola Walker.)

There are only three seasons, but I know you will enjoy them.

Thanks to Erik Kain for finding the words I couldn't.
