Carol Midgley Times (UK) It's week two and Kiri, which had three stand-out scenes, continues to deliver quality. Rated: 4/5 Dec 7, 2021 Full Review Deborah Ross The Mail on Sunday (UK) The construction was so distracting and distancing you never felt fully immersed in the way that you did with either National Treasure or Happy Valley. I just couldn't quite believe it. Rated: 3/5 Dec 7, 2021 Full Review Chitra Ramaswamy Guardian It feels appropriate that the beautifully observed and not-as-grim-as-expected Kiri (Channel 4) opens with a small dark laugh. The kind that tugs at the corners of the mouth where sadness also resides. Dec 7, 2021 Full Review James Walton The Spectator Fortunately, the programme itself is much more nuanced than that, with the 'issues' side of things never overshadowing the human story, and the main characters permitted to be a complicated lot. Dec 7, 2021 Full Review Alison Rowat The Herald (Scotland) If there is any justice left in the world...Kiri should feature in next year's National Television Awards. Dec 7, 2021 Full Review Jasper Rees The Arts Desk As played by [Sarah] Lancashire, who seems entirely at home with a soft Bristolian burr, Miriam is a powerful symbol for all independent-minded pragmatists who fall foul of arse-covering, morale-sapping workplace protocols. Rated: 4/5 Dec 7, 2021 Full Review Read all reviews
