Jodie Whittaker, best known for her iconic role as the first female Doctor in Doctor Who, has returned to our screens in ITV's gripping new drama 'One Night'. But while her performance has been praised, the show itself has sparked mixed reactions among viewers and critics alike.
A Stellar Performance from Whittaker
Whittaker delivers a powerful portrayal of a woman grappling with a life-altering secret, showcasing her versatility as an actress. Her emotional depth and raw intensity have been hailed as the standout elements of the series.
Script and Pacing Issues
Despite Whittaker's brilliance, some critics have described the drama as a 'train wreck', citing uneven pacing and a convoluted plot. The script, while ambitious, occasionally struggles to maintain coherence, leaving audiences confused rather than captivated.
