Gentleman Jack on HBO Period Tale of Lesbian Rebel Anne

ListerBased on her extensive personal writings, 19th century landowner and noted social rebel Anne Lister gets a series of her own. Suranne Jones plays the black-clad businesswoman, who not only sought to develop industrial projects on her family’s land, but made her intentions known to marry a wife in the process. The series combines a central romance between Lister and her intended, Ann Walker (Sophie Rundle), and Lister’s attempts to reinvigorate the coal-mining efforts on her family property at Shibden Hall.
