Read our privacy policy Fans of BBC’s Gentleman Jack have joked that they were left feeling “exhausted” after watching protagonist Anne Lister walk large distances across the UK, apparently within minutes. In the first episode of Gentleman Jack’s recently premiered season two, viewers joked that they were left feeling “exhausted” and “tired” on behalf of Lister – who walks all over Yorkshire, completing her daily tasks to avoid breaking the news of her recent wedding to Walker. Others joked about Lister “speed walking” through the first episode, with one viewer commenting: “I’ve missed Anne Lister walking around in 1.5x speed.” “Her daily step tally must be off the scale,” another Twitter user quipped. Released on Sunday night at 9pm, the first episode of season two is being praised online for its representation of the LGBT+ community, Jones’s performance, and the “intense” chemistry between Anne and Ann.
