This is British. That means acting is a serious job. Most have years of stage training.
The new method in the states is to match a personality to the part and surround it with really good actors. Bravo to those that still carry the craft!
The current media uses fast cuts as a technique that prevents you from thinking as ingesting the information given... it's one of the many way in which media controls you... have a look at the films of Peter Watkins to understand the insidiousness of Medai
I don't know about the other poster's "Media Control" theory, but I do think that the longer, uncut takes happened because the directors and actors had a lot more talent than anybody doing it today. To quote Sean Connery, "Idiots have cornered the market" in the entertainment industry.

Great acting and everything, but it feels boring and long because of all the really long uncut takes. Uncut is weird in our non-medieval age.
