British television is sadly not what it once was, which is one reason why everyone needs Netflix, but every now and again, something good comes along, and now is such a time. Don’t miss Channel Four’s Sunday evening offering, The Handmaid’s Tale, an adaptation of Margaret Atwood’s 1985 novel.
I must have read several thousand novels over the years, both for pleasure and books sent to me to review, but The Handmaid’s Tale is one that sticks in the memory. If you have not read it, please do. If you need a plot summary, one can be found here.
