Joanne Froggatt gives a tremendous performance in Dark Angel, bringing Mary An Cotton, The Black Widow, to life. Cotton is a well known figure from history, a serial killer, a woman who killed countless victims, generally to profit by them.
Great storytelling, it's done in a way which grips you and informs you, but her crimes are definitely not sensationalised.
It's beautifully made, with strong production values, but it's performance of the outstanding Froggatt that stands out.
Some will definitely find it disturbing, it's a very grim tale. 8/10
score 8/10
