Ben Whishaw is great as bitter, passionate hack Freddie, as is Romola Garai as Bel, an ambitious woman seemingly decades ahead of her own time. Both are upstaged, however, by the towering presence of Dominic West.

The Hour is alternately ferocious and tender, and refreshingly clear-eyed about the interactions between gender and class.

What it did well it did very well... But my, how it longed to be Important Television -- and whatever else it was, it wasn't quite that.

A seriously engaging historical drama.
August 17, 2011
The series' inclination to melodrama sometimes overshadows its historical context.

Strangely, it is the day-to-day newsroom politics that is currently proving enthralling on The Hour rather than the conspiracy and unsolved murders lurking in the background.
January 17, 2019
A totally OK hourlong drama... The Hour comes billed as "an edge-of-your-seat spy thriller," which isn't right. It's cozier and slower and airier than that, more of an arm-of-your-sofa spy thriller.
August 17, 2011
It offers amusement and a tad of suspense, but little to ponder over the long run.
January 17, 2019
Spot-on period details and glamorous styling... It does many things exceptionally well, delivering complex characters, a well-paced story, and, of course, the aforementioned art direction.

If you're a fan of high-quality, deliberately paced period drama, you need to check out The Hour.
January 17, 2019
Instead of just offering a soap opera for 50s nostalgics, The Hour gives us an interesting balance between relationships and danger. The conspiracy angle is ever-present, but it's not overpowering.

Viewers craving a satisfying gourmet meal rather than another summertime "reality" Moon Pie are urged to make The Hour a Wednesday night ritual for the next six weeks.
