Nicely mixing period elements with that or a thriller and newsroom drama, The Hour benefits mostly from its brief timeline and brisk pacing. Never plodding, the only time the miniseries gets bogged down is when it ventures too much into a mystery subplot that takes too long to unravel. There's otherwise an emphasis on the incredibly chemistry between the three leads. Ben Whishaw handily steals the show, but Romola Garai and the dashing Dominic West hold their own. Garai and West's romantic plot is often close to irresistible.
