The School for Scandal

on BBC One London

by Richard Brinsley Sheridan
A Play of the Month presentation

London 1777: a place for gossip and scandal. There is no gossip more scandalous than that of Lady Sneerwell, Mrs Candour and Sir Benjamin Backbite, and no more likely subject for their attentions than the lovely Lady Teazle.
