New Masterpiece period drama Beecham House is stunning to look at. The sets are lush, the costumes are beautiful and the world of eighteenth-century Delhi leaps to life onscreen.

Unfortunately, the show’s beautiful veneer is forced to cover over a multitude of cracks.

The first episode of the series is deadly dull and features what is potentially the least interesting male lead we've yet seen on television this year. John is very noble - we know this because everyone keeps telling us this constantly - but he has almost zero personality outside of this oft-repeated fact.
