Sarah Lancashire is one of Britain's best actresses. She really makes this series and is the best choice for the role...outstanding.

[paullacey]

She is one of the best actresses in GB, but she is acting the dialogue written by one of the best writers. Great combination

[katdore]

The scene was so brilliantly portrayed. Outstanding actress

[anthonyclarke]

One word (the last word) and your hooked for a series....comedy gold

[jamess]

This show is the definition of top form

I can not wait! I was a neighbour of Sarah Lancashire back in the day in Oldham. and she was a lovely down to earth lady.. I am very much looking forward to watching her shine again in this drama.

[petarpan]

I can watch Scott and Bailey and Happy Valley every day. Doctor Foster, Line of Duty, Bodyguard... Gentleman Jack. English series and English actors are by far the best. Hollywood could never make series like this. Outstanding by Sara🇷🇸 Big Respect❤

Hoping this comes back to the US. We can’t get enough of Sarah and this series

I remember seeing the TV trailers for this drama back in 2014. I then decided that it probably wasn't my cup of tea, thinking it was about a bobby in the countryside. How wrong I was!. I recently watched S1, Ep1 and was completely hooked by Sarah's acting and character role and the clever story line.
I ended up watching S1, S2 back to back and am now on S3!. Excellent written drama.

Best opening scene EVER! Kudos to Sarah Lancashire for smashing it! If only we all had coppers on the beat like her around the world! And massive kudos to Sally Wainwright for excelling as the writer and Director of this outstanding series! Missing it already!

[stepheneldridge]

Sarah Lancashire is outstanding...just brilliant. And Happy Valley is such a gripping and brilliant series...so well written and acted! Cheers, Steve

This was my show and Sara is a national treasure. Great actress ☝🏽

[BinSF]

She is just BRILLIANT! Can't wait for S3 to get across the pond to the USA!!!!

[JanMike]

The sound of Catherine's voice, regardless of what she's actually saying, is sweet music to my ears. Credit to the divine Sarah Lancashire and her absolute command of character portrayal. Even if she grabbed me by the lapels and pushed me into a wall, and telling me off, I'd be swooning, I swear.

best opening of a series ever..pure brilliance

[sm]

I lived in the area for a time, it’s wonderful to revisit it. Plus she’s a marvellous actor and it’s all brilliantly done.

Heard this was coming so pulled out my copies of season 1&2. Re-Watched them to prepare myself for this series. Sarah Lancashire is sublime! The rest of the original cast are excellent as well, all of them.

I have been waiting years for this, hope it comes to Canada! Love her in this role!
