----Kudos to Amazon for bringing to the screen one of Trollope's lesser-known tales...Rich in period detail and visually stunning, "Dr. Thorne" is a must-see for fans of period dramas, Jane Austen, and the Victorian era, in general....
---The acting in "Thorne" is uniformly excellent--bringing together an ensemble cast that brings Trollope's tale to life...The story is both universal and current: love, loss, jealousy-- and secrets---underpinned by the all-important quest for riches...
---I particularly enjoyed Julian Fellowes' introductions to each episode--giving us his take on both Trollope and his characters; this was an excellent addition to an excellent screenplay (penned by himself)....
---I can only add the hope that Amazon will produce many more of such tales---utilizing the fabulous skills of the inimitable Fellowes.....Most Excellent!
score 9/10
