Melanie McDonagh, Evening Standard, 5th May 2023Tom Jones review
A funny, frisky take on the classic comic novel.
Carol Midgley, The Times, 5th May 2023Tom Jones is one of the funniest, lustiest novels of all time - so why have ITVX stripped it bare?
Gwyneth Hughes has flipped the gender of Henry Fielding's narrator - replacing Tom's wit with Sophia's boredom. Bridgerton, this isn't.
