Fackham Hall review – carry on up the country house
For everyone who thinks that the country house drama ought to be spelled without the "o", there's Fackham Hall, an energetic satire of all things Downton Abbey, Bridgerton, and even Agatha Christie. It arrives the same year that its main target, Downton Abbey, launched its "Grand Finale" movie. Surely we haven't seen the last of the Golden Age-set costume dramas that paint such a beguiling picture of the Great Depression: the genre is the lifeblood of the BBC. And what else would we do on a Sunday night?
Written by sketch comedy veterans the Dawson Bros. and real-life brothers Jimmy and Patrick Carr, and directed by Jim O'Hanlon, Fackham Hall is a surprisingly lavish affair, filmed in and around Liverpool's massive Croxteth Hall and Country Park. But its attitude is defiantly cheeky: say that title three times fast to get its attitude toward the travails of inbred aristocratic types, whose worries centre on who will inherit their grand old mansions.
