Claire Foy’s scandalous new BBC drama is going to be must-watch Christmas TV tv drama averybritishscandal
A Very British Scandal“Writing the story of Margaret’s life and the events leading up to and including her divorce from the Duke has been a passion project of mine since 1993 when I first heard her name and started learning about her,” Phelps has said of the project.
“I felt very strongly that she’d been punished for being a woman, for being visible, for refusing to back down, be a good girl and go quietly. This drama is my tribute to her.”Foy added: “I’m so excited to work with Anne, Sarah and Paul on this extraordinary project, and to explore through this story, how often shame, judgement and controversy surrounds a woman’s sexuality.”
And Bettany has said: “I’m delighted to be working with the remarkable Claire Foy to tell the fascinating and scandalous story of the Duke and Duchess of Argyll and their very complicated lives. “I’m also extremely happy to get the chance to once again be working with the wonderful teams at the BBC and Amazon Studios.”The hour-long, three-episode series will premiere on BBC One and BBC iPlayer in the UK this December, although we have yet to learn the exact date this televised treat will hit our screens.Sign up for the latest news and must-read features from Stylist, so you don't miss out on the conversation.
