Leave your thoughts about Suffragettes, with Lucy Worsley.
| GuardianJulia RaesideSuffragettes with Lucy Worsley brilliantly treads the line between Reithian historical documentary and vividly textured narrative. |
| Observer (UK)Euan FergusonAbsent were the comfy stereotypes of feisty, flinty heroines chaining themselves stoically to gates, passively leafletting. Instead we saw the all-out violence - the bombs, the arson, the fear, the terrorism - deemed necessary |
| Times (UK)Chris BennionWorsley's context-setting was impeccable, immersing us in a Britain where women having the vote was truly radical. |
| Daily Mail (UK)Claudia ConnellThere is something so charmingly engaging about Lucy Worsley - who wasn't afraid to criticise the Suffragettes for their violence. |
| The Herald (Scotland)Alison RowatNormally such contrivance would have been wildly irritating, but the historian's respect for the subject was so clear one forgave the silliness. |
