julia davis be a brilliant writer and actress but i find this utterly boring . it be bill a a black comedy but it prompt not one laugh . it be not particularly black either . the recreation of the period seem meticulous and rang true to me and who vaguely remember the programme . but such ingenuity deserve a good script . one be tempt to suggest that the subject matter be just not that interest . however and there be hint that craddock character be extraordinarily complex . but leave a hint they do not lead anywhere . i suspect that julia davis be too constrain by the need for this biopic to be true to the know fact to be able to produce anything funny or even interesting .
