Like so many, I had been waiting a long time for this 1999 BBC miniseries to come out on DVD, and I am happy to announce that it was worth the wait.
Aristocrats, based on the book by Stella Tillyard, tells the story of the lives of aristocratic sisters in Georgian England--Caroline, Emily, Louisa, and Sarah (they were King Charles I's great-granddaughters through his mistress Louise de Keroualle).
Elopements, tragedy, affairs, and political drama are just some of the exciting themes explored in this miniseries, and the fact that this myriad of drama really did happen makes it all the more compelling.
