Pros: The mini-series followed the book.
Cons: Characters are made to be stereotypical and sometimes you just want to scream at Nan!
I loved Sarah Water's novel, "Tipping the Velvet" which made it a must to see the screen adaption. Director Geoffrey Sax and screenwriter Andrew Davies made it worth wild by capturing Sarah Water's characters beautifully.
The setting is 1890's England and the roller coaster ride begins when Nan finds she has feelings for a beautiful male impersonator...Miss Kitty Butler. All of sudden, her once normal life gets turned upside down. The movie, just like the book, is not for the weak at heart as we follow Nan through a lot of turbulation in her life. But if you can get past the dark side of things, you will really enjoy watching this mini series.
Here's a big thumbs up to the BBC for an extremely well casted mini-series.
