Landscapers review

Turning true crime into the most daring and dazzling drama of the year.

Michael Hogan, The Telegraph, 7th December 2021

Landscapers review

Those for whom its shifting frames of reference present a visual game of special interest will likely know early on that this show is for them; for the rest of the audience, an Olivia Colman-David Thewlis acting duet is nothing to sneeze at.

Daniel D'Addario, Variety, 6th December 2021

Landscapers review

The result is rich, thought-provoking art that makes Susan and Christopher strangely sympathetic, as they blend the lines of fantasy in order to keep the truth - whatever it might be - deeply buried.

Landscapers review

Olivia Colman is predictably exceptional in spectacular true crime black comedy.

Adam Miller, Metro, 1st December 2021

Landscapers review

Despite its concerted effort to experiment and push boundaries, which is an act of creative bravery that deserves praise, its bombast is an unwanted and unnecessary distraction that makes the case and those at the heart of it feel secondary to the director’s box of tricks.

Abby Robinson, Radio Times, 1st December 2021

The chilling true story

Neighbours of Patricia and William Wycherley believed the couple had left their sleepy village near Mansfield -- but really they were dead and buried in a shallow grave in their own back garden.

They'd been shot dead by their own daughter, Susan -- who Olivia Colman is now playing in her new drama, Landscapers.
