JimGJun 23, 20075Disappointing primarily because Spall has always been so dependable. Unfortunately, the role he is given here is johnny one-note: the weight of pierrepoint's conscience is there at the beginning at the end with no real dramatic build. The same can be same for the cinematography. No contrast is offered emotionally or visually.

70Like most television directors, Shergold is good with actors. Jowly, impassive and rigid with righteous dignity, Timothy Spall makes a wonderfully meticulous Pierrepoint.

At once desperately grim and unnervingly gripping, providing an exacting sense of the detail and procedure that went into death by hanging.

88British actor Timothy Spall gives a shattering performance as Albert Pierrepoint.
