'Girlfriends' DVD Review

Kay Mellor’s 'Girlfriends' comes to DVD on June 26th, 2018. This beautifully written, incredibly acclaimed drama has to be one of the best coming out of Britain in a long time. Phyllis Logan plays Linda whose husband goes missing while on a cruise. Miranda Richardson is Sue who helped co-found a business only to find herself being forced out. Zoe Wanamaker plays Gail whose son is returning home from a stay in prison. What you must understand about all this is that the three woman are lifelong friends.

The beauty about this show is that even with the complications of their lives there are more unexpected events that are yet to come. Thus bringing them closer together and relying more on each other. The fun part of all this are the little secrets of each other's lives that begin to unravel due to the circumstances of each other’s lives.

This is a humorous and heartbreaking story of three woman who have known each other since childhood and how each has endured the challenges of growing up. The most wonderful aspect of this story is how the person watching it can relate to the characters. The acting is superb. The story line is the best and you will want to watch it over and over. The ensemble cast is pretty great also, like Matthew Lewis, Anthony Head, Adrian Rawlins and Valerie Lilley to just name a few.

Acorn TV brings this heartbreaking comedy/drama to us on DVD on June 26th, 2018 as I stated in the first paragraph. The quality of the two DVD set is excellent and the sights and sounds are exquisite. This will make a wonderful addition to the personal library that you may have in your home. So don’t waste any time and pick this one up for some enjoyable TV watching during these summer months.
