I have only recently read the books, and if anything my admiration for this adaptation actually grew having finished it. It would have been easy to veer away from the book, but it's such an accurate adaptation.
Piper shines once again as Sally, she is joined by a terrific cast, some real talent on display here, Julian Rhind Tutt, Richard Clews and of course Jared Harris.
I'm so glad this was adapted, the first was lucky enough to have a masterclass from Julie Walters, this one relies more on the story, action and humour.
The action scenes at the end are terrific, the humour comes from Dona Croll, who is so funny.
Terrific production values, it looks sensational, some of the costumes used here are tremendous.
Overall, I loved it, 9/10.
