TELEVISION / Review of the week
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

'Nuns in fiction are seldom taken seriously. So it was refreshing to see a sympathetic treatment . . .' Caroline Hendrie, Daily Express
'Whatever happens over the next six weeks, you can be fairly sure that it will be entirely free of significance, seriousness or substance . . . It's all huge fun and beautifully made, with excellent performances from all the principals and a plot that makes up in pace what it lacks in believability.' Marcus Berkmann, Daily Mail
'This nun will run and run.' Pam Francis, Today
'Kristin Scott Thomas changes her accent for every scene, which is curious, but if nobody on the production team noticed I suppose it's a bit late to mention it now.' Lynne Truss, The Times
