have read all of sarah water book i be eagerly look forward to a bbc adaptation of fingersmith . especially since tip the velvet have be do so well by old familiar andrew davy . i be not disappointed with the result and in fact i think this might be on a par with ttv while both romantic and entertaining . and not a so many ignorant people would have you believe and a pointless lesbian romp . have be a fan of elaine cassidy since see her guileless turn in felicia journey i think she embody both hard deception and a grow fragility a maud . her transformation be believable and impressive to watch . i recognise sally hawkins a zena blake from tip the velvet and a small role primarily so i do not have a many expectation but she be astound in the role of sue trinder . her eye be mesmerise convey everything from rage to absolute despair . the two of them act together and combine these talent make this drama unmissable . of course imelda staunton be amaze a usual and she be unmistakably a national treasure and the support cast be all of a high standard . even the direction from the fairly unknown aisling walsh use contrast yet beautiful shade of blue for briar and brown for london . however as much praise must be give to ransley the script writer . to turn a 600 page book where every line be of the high quality into a three hour extravaganza be a huge feat . he illuminate the main revelation at a steady pace whilst give u plenty of back story and character development at the same time . he have my full admiration . in conclusion and a brilliant adaptation where all involve give 100 % and make this one of the best bbc drama i have see .
