**Los Angeles, CA** – Netflix’s new series, “Black Doves,” starring Keira Knightley and Ben Whishaw, has defied expectations and debuted to overwhelmingly positive reviews. The show currently boasts a remarkable 97% rating on Rotten Tomatoes based on 31 critic reviews, with only one negative assessment. This is a significantly higher score than other recent Netflix hits, surpassing even the currently popular “The Madness,” which holds a 76% critic rating.
While the audience score sits at 67%, this is expected to rise as more viewers finish the newly released series. The show, created by Joe Barton (known for “Giri/Haji”), is an original story, not based on pre-existing material. Netflix has already shown its confidence in the series by renewing it for a second season before the first even premiered.
“Black Doves” follows Helen, who engages in a passionate affair while concealing a secret identity. When her lover becomes entangled in London’s underworld, her employer calls in Sam (played by Whishaw) for protection. The supporting cast includes Andrew Koji (“Warrior”) and Sarah Lancashire (“Happy Valley”), adding further star power to the production.
