WORTH WATCHING: ..., ‘Way Home’ and ‘Nolly’ Finales
"Hallmark’s time-tripping The Way Home and Masterpiece’s Nolly also present their finales."
Nolly
PBS
SERIES FINALE
9/8c
SUNDAY: The conclusion of Russell T Davies’ all-too-brief show-biz dramedy addresses the question that continues to hound soap-opera star Noele “Nolly” Gordon (the sublime Helena Bonham Carter) no matter where she goes or what role she plays: Why was she fired from the hit series Crossroads at the height of her and the show’s success in 1981? She’s now making a go of it on stage with intermittent success—her Mama Rose in Gypsy is not, however, one for the ages—but it takes a road tour to Bangkok, of all places, for Nolly to learn the truth, which leads to a confrontation back home and a possible comeback just when she needs it most.
