Trilby

on BBC Two England

Adapted by Hugh Whitemore from the novel by George du Maurier, with Alan Badel and Sinead Cusack

Paris in the 1880s - the artistic capital of Europe. In the narrow twisting streets and courtyards of the Left Bank live painters and sculptors from all over the world. Here lives the beautiful young model, Trilby; here are the haunts of the mysterious Svengali.
