Exceptional. More please.
Three quarters of the way through, Bonham Carter's character has to deal with Marsay's character's resignation as her nanny after a series of minor disasters.
HBC delivers a roller coaster speech, half strong rebuke, half recognition of the genuine love between the nanny and the children. She finishes with "Is it your exam tomorrow? Good Luck. Be less crap". The skill and craft she invests in these ten words is a great example of what has made this series such a pleasure. Because the whole series is full of examples of how much great acting can contribute to a witty, well-written script.
I didn't much like the actress/nanny in Episode 4, who seem to have blown in from another show and broke the family dynamic rather badly but everything else was a delight.
