A five-part adaptation of the novel by Joanna Trollope, starring James Fox David Warner
At Aldminster Cathedral a crisis is looming.

The Choir 9.05pm BBC1
Take a best-selling Joanna Trollope novel and add an all-star cast that includes James Fox, David Warner, Nicholas Farrell and Jane Asher, the splendour of Gloucester and Worcester Cathedrals as a backdrop, and plenty of angelic voices singing stirring choral works. The result is on our screens tonight and for the next five weeks.
The story, dramatised by Trollope's husband Ian Curteis, takes place in the outwardly genteel world of Aldminster Cathedral where intrigue, betrayal and hypocrisy are rife and the treasured buildings are constantly in need of repair. Read about William Greaves's location visit on page 28 and for a candid observation of the real life of a cathedral choir, watch Everyman (10.55pm, BBC1) which visits Salisbury Cathedral Choir School.
