This isn't a documentary and cries of 'she has perfect teeth, she shouldn't have' are laughable. What should the producer do then ? Get the teeth remodeled to show how bad dentistry was in that period ? if you view it as a drama set in a period and location which isn't strictly accurate then you may well enjoy it.
The characters are not fully developed yet as it's early in the series. However, the acting is OK and the storyline is entertaining. I enjoyed it as I watched it in the spirit in which it was intended (as entertainment).
Don't watch it if you want to see signs of realistic brutal rapes, scabies and actors and actresses that are rather liked walking skeletons. I don't think the BBC can expect that from their cast.
btw the uniforms all look rather too clean too :)
score 7/10
