Woman’s Day (Australia)

Picnic At Hanging Rock SUNDAY, 8.30PM, FOXTEL

-

One of the year’s most anticipate­d drama series is finally here, and it’s worth the wait. For those who haven’t read Joan Lindsay’s novel, or seen the 1975 movie, this six-part adaptation explores the disappeara­nce of three schoolgirl­s and a teacher at Hanging Rock, Victoria, on Valentine’s Day in 1900. “Overarchin­g this entire thing is: what happened to those girls? It’s such a great ensemble piece with so many characters with a lot of secrecy between them,” teases Game of Thrones star Natalie Dormer (above), who plays headmistre­ss Mrs Appleyard.
