Picnic at Hanging Rock


Foxtel having a winning streak with TV dramas in Australia, except Picnic at Hanging Rock better pick up the pace because frankly it's a little dull.



With an all star cast and so much hype behind it, it was always going to be judged. The six part miniseries, is now up online at Foxtel Now (or whatever the budget Foxtel is called that Telstra gave me free for a year) and you can binge it all Netflix style.

Natalie Dormer, formally of Game of Thrones is the main draw card but it's the young girls from the Picnic who may leave the best impression on the viewers.

It's not getting rave reviews however the ambitious project is getting screened on Amazon in the US and BBC in the UK.

I am still waiting desperately next month for the return of Wentworth the jewel in the crown of the Foxtel drama line up. Great news is the series has already been renewed for a seventh season surely making it Foxtel's longest running local drama.
