<i>Gentleman Jack</i> (TV series) British historical television drama series (2019, 2022)

Gentleman Jack is a historical drama television series created by Sally Wainwright for BBC One and HBO. Set in the 1830s in Yorkshire, it stars Suranne Jones as landowner and industrialist Anne Lister. The series is based on Lister's collected diaries—which run to an estimated 5 million words with about a sixth in secret code,—documenting a lifetime of lesbian relationships. Helena Whitbread began decoding and transcribing the diaries in the 1980s. Other transcribers have carried on the work. The research carried out for Wainwright’s Gentleman Jack amounts to hundreds of thousands of words of new transcription of the diary.
