After watching the last season of Happy Valley, Jamie Lee Curtis made it clear that she likes the show.
The 64-year-old Hollywood star said on social media this week that she had finished the series and was totally hooked.
She praised the show’s star, Sarah Lancashire, and its author, Sally Wainwright, on Twitter.
‘Just finished @happyvalleybbc. THANK YOU @SarahLancsUK and @sallywainwrigh8 for a gorgeous portrait of an amazing woman,’ she posted.
On Instagram, the actress also shared a poster of the show, captioning it: ‘Sarah Lancashire and Sally Wainwright, we watch in awe!’
Many fans were happy to find out that Jamie liked the show and shared their happiness.
‘Omg I love that you’ve watched this. Best show ever,’ one person commented.
‘My favourite TV show being championed by favourite film star!!! It’s amazing how happy this has made me,’ someone else said.
Another added that they now ‘needed a Jamie Lee Curtis/Sarah Lancashire team up thriller in my life.’
After an eight-year wait, the show’s fourth and final season came out earlier this year. It ended with a “masterpiece” ending that brought to a close the long fight between Sarah (Sgt. Catherine Cawood) and Tommy Lee Royce (James Norton, a rapist).
Soon after, it was found out that 7.5 million people had watched that episode, making it the most-watched BBC show of the year up to that point.
Jamie didn’t seem to have any trouble understanding the Yorkshire accents, but James told him that many Americans watched the BBC show with subtitles.
‘I mean, the way shows like Happy Valley travel over to America, it’s amazing,’ he told The News Agents podcast earlier this year.
‘I feel so proud when I go over there, and random people come up to me on the street and talk to me about Hebden Bridge… They watch it with subtitles on, but they love it.’
His comments came around the same time that an otherwise glowing Rolling Stone review of the series advised people to ‘watch with captions on to penetrate some of the show’s more thickly-accented conversations that are necessary to decipher the subplots’.
Happy Valley is streaming on BBC iPlayer.
