Prioritize:
he fourth episode was packed with drama and had an almost horror-like atmosphere. Even Jack the Ripper would have missed his mark in that fog. John Lithgow gets better with each episode; his portrayal of Winston Churchill is absolutely perfect and really overshadows (or should I say "fogs up"?) the other characters for me.
()
A brilliant re-creation of one of London's historic judgement days. A dramatic episode that does not lack some rather significant losses from the ranks of the supporting characters.
