About this deal

Moreau, Jordan (11 January 2023). "SAG Awards 2023 Nominations: 'Banshees' and 'Everything Everywhere' Tie for Most Nods in History". Variety. Archived from the original on 11 January 2023 . Retrieved 13 June 2023. The English has been received well. Ahead of the series premiere in the UK, the show had a 79% critics' rating on Rotten Tomatoes, a score which has jumped up to 83% since the show's debut (as of the time of our last update). Most outlets were particularly impressed with the cast's performances and beautifully shot scenery. In 1890, Kills On Water reveals that his family was killed at Chalk River, and asks Whipp what became of the men responsible. Billed as "an epic parable on race, love and power", The English is a six-episode miniseries that follows one woman's quest for vengeance in 19th Century America. From all the buzz around the series we've heard so far, it's shaping up to be one of the best BBC dramas of the year.

Martin is a Staff Writer with WhatToWatch.com, where he produces a variety of articles focused on the latest and greatest films and TV shows. Meanwhile, The A.V. Club said the show "has all the makings of a classic Western saga" and praised many elements including the performances, cinematography, and costumes, but were frustrated with the plot development, writing "there are hints of an in-depth, poignant tale hidden within The English, as Eli and Cornelia struggle with retaining parts of their identities after experiencing tragedy. But the show so explicitly wants to establish its Western atmosphere that the plot becomes an afterthought." There is dignity in [this ending] for her," the actress told TVLine. "She has gone through a reclamation of identity. And there is something healing in that she met in Eli such a kind man, and a man who had such an impact on her life. She is someone who is big on destiny, and this happens to be her rather tragic destiny.In 1890, a US army patrol in the newly formed Oklahoma territory kills Running Hawk, a wanted Cheyenne chief. Sergeant Eli Whipp, a Pawnee scout, stops them from killing Running Hawk's family, and retires to claim land in Nebraska he is owed for his military service, despite warnings that he will now be viewed as "one of them".

Ramachandran, Naman (28 March 2023). "Kate Winslet, Kit Connor, 'The Traitors' Among Winners at U.K.'s Royal Television Society Awards". Variety . Retrieved 30 March 2023. Speaking to The Telegraph about her starring role, Blunt said: "I love a character with a secret. And I loved Cornelia's buoyancy, her hopefulness, her guilelessness. It's the worst thing ever when you open a script and read the words 'strong female lead'. That makes me roll my eyes – I’m already out. I’m bored. Those roles are written as incredibly stoic, you spend the whole time acting tough and saying tough things. The BBC added: "Both of them have a clear sense of their destiny but neither is aware that it is rooted in a shared past. They must face increasingly terrifying obstacles that will test them to their cores, physically and psychologically. But as each obstacle is overcome it draws them closer to their ultimate destination, the new town of Hoxem, Wyoming.However, when they form this unlikely alliance – and no doubt will set off an adeventures that will last 13 years until the programme meets the point where it starts, in future episodes – it still comes across as a complete waste of everyone’s time. The English review – Emily Blunt's sweeping western is a rare, sensational masterpiece". The Guardian. 10 November 2022 . Retrieved 15 November 2022. What starts off as a bit on the dull side, sees The English descending into being very arty-farty with slow motion shots, lots of mumbling, and not a lot of a sense of direction for the plot. Plus, too much of this is in the dark, so you can barely see what’s going on.
