A WOMAN OF SUBSTANCE
SECOND SEASON ANNOUNCED OFFICIALLY
It has become Channel 4's most watched new series in half a decade and you already know that the second season will be shooting later this year after it airs in USA as well this Wednesday on BritBox, but
now we have a plot as well for the second run. Brenda Blethyn and Jessica Reynolds will again play the older and younger Emma Harte who rises from poverty to billions. In new eight episode season, she emerges from World War One and strides into the glittering, fast changing world of the 1920s. Her ambition for the Harte name is unrelenting, as is her determination to make the Fairley family pay. But she has passion to contend with, in the form of the infuriatingly charismatic Paul McGill, and she'll also endure devastating loss and face unexpected betrayals from those she holds most dear. Meanwhile in the 1970s, she battles to win back her life’s work from Jim Fairley who not only married her heiress but also will have a kid with her. Emma will have a Fairley grandchild! Oh, noes!

I always love Brenda Blethyn. The first film I watched was Saving Grace...hopefully I can get to watch this one some day.
ReplyDeleteIt is such a lovely series and great cast as well, the young actress is brilliant too.
DeleteI've heard of this but haven't seen it but it does sound like it would be good to watch.
