Three Little Birds

From the screenplay, to the casting, the set design to the costumes this is an outstanding series. There is not long to wait before this series gets straight into the action. Persevering through hardship and adversity, not to mention near-death experiences that should, we hope, be quite difficult to imagine for modern-day British citizens, this group of incredible women overcome. With grace and humility, and a huge dose if sheer grit and determination. I would gladly watch this again and really hope theres a season two in the pipeline. Britain at that time may not have had segregation in name, but it certainly had it in practice. I hope this gets shown in schools for GCSE History, Sociology or one of the other Humanities courses.

Three Little Birds is a triumph! Created by Lenny Henry the story set in the late 50s in Britain is well crafted and comes across as an authentic production for the period. All of the actors involved give superb performances enhanced by the direction and strong dialogue. Stand outs for me were the costumes, sets and props reinforcing the period of the story. Despite the challenges faced by the main ensemble of characters in the story, there's still a promise of hope and joy. Migration stories are important to tell and Three Little Birds is a valuable contribution to the story of Jamaican migration to the UK. Highly recommended.

Sensational. I just love the film sets, costumes, acting and scripts. I am seriously binge watching this series! Filmed in the black country with an accurate description of why it is called the black country. Set in the windrush era, this series shares history of what life was like for Caribbean immigrants relocating to the UK. A story that I wanted to hear with superb characters. The film sets and cars, shops and homes look authentically 1950s. And wow Dudley zoo features! Not to be missed. I hope the series continues and the characters develop. No hidden ethnic agendas here, pure history and its beautifully done!

It reminds me of the stories that my mom and other older family members would talk about. They were from Arkansas and Louisiana who migrated to Oakland, Alameda California in the 1950's.

Black people of African descent have the SAME experience no matter where they came from; Caribbean or United States.

Also, the white (European) HATE that was and continues to be prevalent this world especially against Black people of African descent.

But as the world can see by watching this series , which is so fantastic that Black people continue to rise and be the beautiful, strong, determined people they/we are.

Watched mainly for when it occurred. The soundtrack was excellent, nightclubs scenes dancing were good. The casting was excellent. The storyline was interesting, and while a bit depressing, the prejudice storyline, was integral too,as it wasn't any different in England than the USA. The wardrobe ,and the zoo were excellent, had that vibe from the 50's. The church scenes and the conversations were so familiar, as I worked with many and even attended church with them,. The culture felt so familiar. The sexual harassment was so sad. One down side it seemed, was the lesbian relationship was shoehorned in make the show politically correct. That seems to be the norm though anymore. Hoping there is a second season.
