Gillian Anderson on the screening of 'War and Peace' in Los Angeles

1 min read
It was billed as the BBC's sure-fire hit.  But the modern-day adaptation of War and Peace has already lost one million viewers since debuting, last week - after complaints of garbled dialogue. However, that didn't stop co-stars Gillian Anderson, Paul Dano and James Norton from partying up a storm at The London West Hollywood in Los Angeles on Monday. 

Brushing off the ratings disappointment, the trio were special guests at The Weinstein Company's official screening at the six-part series, where they joined the eponymous producer and his LA pals in a fresh PR drive.

Despite the million drop, the drama was still the most-watched programme at 9pm on Sunday. In addition, audience figures will also probably  rise as people catch up on the show. The first episode was viewed an extra 2.1million times after its initial broadcast.

The complaints came after people struggled to understand many of the actors, who allegedly mumbled their lines and were drowned-out by loud music. According to some reports, many were forced to watch the show with subtitles on.
