Renegade Nell on Disney+ review: Sally Wainwright's historical romp sags under the weight of its own whimsy
As far as pivots go, it’s a strange one: what on earth possessed Sally Wainwright, the creator of famously gritty cop show Happy Valley, to pen a whimsical tale about magic, fairies and Georgian England?
Perhaps she’d had enough of Tommy Lee Royce. Perhaps she wanted a break from all the bleakness. Either way, Wainwright has gone about as hard as she+ series.
