GUNPOWDER
December 18, 2017  | By David Bianculli

MINISERIES PREMIERE: Kit Harington from Game of Thrones stars in this three-part miniseries import from the BBC, tracing the origins of the rebellious movement known as Guy Fawkes Day. Harington plays Robert Catesby, the major force behind the Gunpowder Plot in London in 1605. Harington is not only a co-executive producer on the show, but also, reportedly, is an actual descendant of the real Catesby. For a full review, see David Hinckley's All Along the Watchtower.
