Last Tango in Halifax Season 2 Review

5.0 out of 5 starsIncredible Cast, Compelling Stories, Lovely Scenery: What More Could You Want? More. Just More.

I absolutely love this show! I kept seeing it in lists of BBC series that were available to watch. I'm not sure why it took me a while to decide to view it, but I'm glad I finally did. The acting is, of course, superb. (I mean, look at the primary cast: Derek Jacobi, Anne Reid, Nicola Walker, Sarah Lancashire.) The characters are complex: they all have good qualities to recommend them, but they each commit acts of cruelty and then redeem themselves with kindness. The ones that seem a hot mess are, in some ways, much more together than the ones that appear to have their lives figured out.

The scenery adds further appeal. The story takes place between Halifax and Harrogate. Viewers are treated to country views - complete with sheep bouncing about along the sides of the road - as well as scenes in town. (It's not actually filmed in Harrogate; Altrincham stands in as a substitute.) Trips back and forth between the two locations are not merely incidental to the plot, and I find myself looking forward to the regular road trips.

One downside is that it does get a bit "soapy" at times. I think it's hard to avoid this when the plot is centered around the colliding relationships among very different people who are thrust together suddenly. I think it's forgivable. In the end, the overall charm trumps the occasional over-the-top moments.

I highly recommend "Last Tango." This isn't one of those shows you have to warm up to. Most people will know whether they're hooked after the first episode. So, if you're at all drawn to it, it's worth giving it an hour. But be forewarned: you probably won't be able to stop.
