Jeremy Brock will pen the adaptation

King of Scotland and Mrs. Brown scribe Jeremy Brock will pen the TV series adaptation of William Dalrymple's bestseller THE ANARCHY! The massive production to be shot in UK, USA and India will tell  the story of how one of the world’s most magnificent empires, the Mughal empire, disintegrated and came to be replaced by the British East India Company – a dangerously unregulated private company based thousands of miles away in a small London office just five windows wide. No news on the adaptation of Dalrymple's Koh-I-Noor book which was also announced three years ago.
