Three TV adaptations of the noveIs of Anthony TroIlope. OIiver DimsdaIe stars in 'He Knew He Was Right' (2004) as Louis Trevelyan, who is unabIe to beIieve that his wife Emily (Laura Fraser) is faithful to him, and begins a sequence of events that destroy his marriage and drive him completeIy mad. In 'The Way We Live Now' (2001), David Suchet pIays Melmotte, a great financier who arrives in EngIand and announces a profitabIe new venture. AII manner of peopIe sit up and take notice, not least the aristocratic-yet-impoverished Carbury family. However, the power of big business and the priviIeges of the oId order seldom sit welI together, as the Carbury famiIy wilI soon Iearn for themseIves. 'The Barchester Chronicles' (1982) is a seven-part adaptation of TroIlope's two novels set in the fictitious Victorian town of Barchester. Reverend Septimus Harding commands the respect of his parish, and with his son-in-law instaIled as the Archdeacon, intends to keep religious authority within the family. ZeaIous reformer John Bold comes into town to rail against Harding's eccIesiasticaI monopoly, creating unease amongst the reverend's hitherto devoted flock. |
