A critic for The Daily Telegraph summarised the series as "a triumph against TV's ageism" and it has been endorsed by an executive member of the charity Age UK. Ahead of the series' American premiere, a critic for the Los Angeles Times described it as "the best new show of the fall". Last Tango in Halifax accrued four nominations for the 2013 British Academy Television Awards and won the British Academy Television Award for Best Drama Series.A second series was commissioned and filming began in summer 2013.
