Incredible BBC series based on hit book leaves | UK News
TV drama Mix Tape hit the screens earlier this 12 months in a candy adaptation from the acclaimed novel Mix Tape by Jane Sanderson. Acquired by the BBC, it immediately had people speaking when it aired over the summer time, with viewers describing their first watch as completely emotional.
The series follows freelance music journalist Dan O’Toole and creator Alison Connor who grew up as youngsters in Sheffield and fell in love. Fast-forward to current day, viewers eagly wait for their paths to cross again. When they do, both of them are married to other people, so we glance at the story from an whole “will they? won’t they?” perspective. And as viewers eagerly waited to see what occurred with the pair, it obtained limitless quantities of reward on IMDb.
Getting a 10/10 review on IMDb, people have praised the new drama as one consumer wrote: “I have had to binge watch it because I couldn’t stop watching it. This is one of the best series I’ve watched in a while. It got me hooked and my husband has loved it too.
“I’ve felt fairly emotional, it is just so good and so properly produced and directed and properly acted.”
The user also said that as someone who lives near Sheffield, it brought the city in the late 80s “back to life”, they added: “I actually cannot advocate it enough. Just needed to give it as many stars as I may.”
Meanwhile, a man in his 50s said it was “completely heartbreaking from start to end”, adding that he and his wife had watched all four hours in one evening.
A 9 star review also saw one user say the show was “refreshing” and that they were glued to their screen, with the only negative aspect being “various accents”.
It’s no surprise that the series did incredibly well, because the book, which was published in 2020, also flew off the shelves with a whopping 4.5/5 star review on Amazon.
Sanderson previously spoke about her book being made into a series and said that it was an “wonderful feeling”, but she felt “wounded” by some of the changes that were made for TV, despite understanding it at a later date.
She added: “On the entire it was a actually good evocation of my book and it was positively true to the spirit of the book.”
