	Author	Review
United States	Allison Keene Paste Magazine	"For those who have missed the swirling, upperclass dramas of Downton Abbey, its creator Julian Fellowes has penned another story worth the obsession (...) Engaging and ultimately very satisfying"	POS
United States	Robyn Bahr The Hollywood Reporter	"If you can tolerate period dialogue peppered with modern idioms, you'll find a zippy and engaging soap in 'Belgravia'"	POS
United Kingdom	Ed Cumming The Independent	"Julian Fellowes has an indisputable gift for instant characterisation, but his new period drama lacks Downton’s sense of place (...) Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)"	NEU
United Kingdom	Chris Bennion Telegraph	"Fun, frothy and fabulous on the eye (...) It hasn't got Downton's warmth (...) though it has Downton’s pedigree stamped all over it (...) Rating: ★★★★ (out of 5)"	POS
Ireland	Ed Power Irish Times	Belgravia is, in other words, everything fans loved about Downton only with more of it: more top hats, more tittle-tattle, more huge drawing rooms"	POS
United States	Matt Fagerholm rogerebert.com	“'Belgravia' is an entertainment, first and foremost—and a cracking good one at that—but it also serves as a biting critique of the unearned shame spurred by prejudice that severs our connection from those we love.'	POS
United States	Ann Donahue IndieWire	"The production design, hair and makeup, and costumes are outstanding (...) [but] the storytelling is so overt and relentlessly obvious that it causes the show to drag and characters to become cartoonish"	NEU
United States	Caroline Siede AV Club	"For period piece fans, Belgravia has more than enough gorgeous costuming and historical detailing to prove a satisfying diversion"	POS
United States	Robert Lloyd Los Angeles Times	"Everything is expertly done. The dialogue is crisp, the actors classically adept and physically right, the direction relaxed, the camerawork restrained"	POS
United Kingdom	Lucy Mangan The Guardian	"Something to pass the time as the coronavirus curfew descends, or something to send you screaming into the streets and licking the first handrail you can find? The decision is yours (…) Rating: ★★ (out of 5)"	NEU
United States	Joel Keller Decider	"It’s not as good as 'Downton Abbey', but 'Belgravia' still holds a viewer’s interest as the secrets of both the Trenchards and Lady Brockenhurst’s family are revealed."	POS
