Dark Angel (2016)
8/10
A classy bit a drama man

What a compelling drama, thoroughly interesting. I only stumbled across it after hearing the ghostly tale of Mary Ann on a history tour in Durham city. I grew up in the village from where she is claimed to originate and yet had never heard of her. Joanne Frogatt and Alun Armstrong have strong performances and I very much enjoyed the rest of the cast and the wonderful locations including the North East coastline and liberal use of our amazing Beamish Open Air Museum. An unknown and under rated tale of mystery brought to life, I would have only liked to know more behind her rationale but it seems little is really known of her, with limited written records for the rural mining community of the time I suppose it's no wonder. And also makes you question how many other "Mary Ann's" got away with similar crimes!!?
