Critics' Review of Witches of Essex
The show has been described as a "poignant and striking story of state-sanctioned violence and misogyny" but has been criticized for including "cheap gags".
It made for a poignant and striking story of state-sanctioned violence and misogyny that could have done without the cheap gags.
Despite its lengthy runtime, the programme has been found to be "frustratingly superficial" in its exploration of the context and motivations behind the history of women being accused of witchcraft.
