Concluding the drama, set against the background of the English slave trade.
Starring Warren Clarke, Anna Massey, Emma Fielding, Ariyon Bakare

Frances prays that her child was fathered by her husband, and urges Mehuru to flee Bristol.
See today's choices.
Adapted by Philippa Gregory from her novel

A Respectable Trade
9.20pm BBCl The dramatic crux of Philippa Gregory's drama lies on whether we can accept that a black slave and his 18th-century mistress would be able to go against social taboos and fall in love. That it just succeeds hinges on two things: the character of Mehuru and the similarities between the two lovers.
Frances and Mehuru are both considered decorative possessions in the eyes of the male-dominated society. So not only has this drama shown us the dark side to our maritime history, but also the realities of our social history.
