 IN THE STORY THAT FOLLOWS

a rich British family in 1880s London Francesca Annis will play formidable Forsyte matriarch Ann. Stephen Moyer is Ann’s eldest son, Jolyon Senior, head of the family stockbroking firm Forsyte & Co. Danny Griffin plays his bohemian son Jo, while Tuppence Middleton is his status-driven wife Frances. Jack Davenport plays Ann’s competitive younger son James.  Joshua Orpin stars as James’ shrewd son Soames, with  Millie Gibson  as his love interest. Tom Durant Pritchard  plays Monty Dartie, James’ son-in-law. Eleanor Tomlinson plays Louisa Byrne, a Soho dressmaker and Jo’s first love. Family stability is threatened by two chance encounters for rival cousins, Jolyon and Soames, throwing their previously steady lives into disarray. Married Jolyon contends with the reappearance of his former lover, Louisa, a lady’s maid-turned-dressmaker, while daughter June falls for a penniless architect. Soames, meanwhile, is enchanted by the beautiful and free-spirited dancer Irene. All must decide whether to be ruled by the head or the heart. Ten years after Jolyon’s marriage to high society favourite, Frances, the Forsytes prepare to celebrate daughter June’s 18th birthday and entrance into society. Ambitious Frances is determined to secure her an advantageous marriage. Meanwhile, the question of the succession of the family firm, Forsyte & Co., hangs heavily in the air with brothers, and rivals, Jolyon Senior and James battling for their own sons, Jolyon and Soames, to triumph as chairman. Despite Jolyon’s protests, Soames wastes no time in demonstrating his ruthless business acumen by seizing an opportunity to offload risky shares in a mining company, consequently causing its collapse, and the destitution of many of its shareholders. Elsewhere, Soames finds himself utterly captivated by the beautiful dancer Irene Heron, leaping to her assistance after her father’s sudden collapse. Just as Soames and James’s plans to conspire against them escalate, Jolyon Senior makes a shock announcement at June’s birthday party. Frances, meanwhile, suspicious of her husband’s unceremonious disappearance from their daughter’s party, follows him and makes a shocking discovery.

In this next chapter that is now shooting in Britain, the proud dynasty faces a new era of scandal, ambition, and shifting loyalties. As love, legacy and reputation collide, the cracks in the family’s polished façade grow ever deeper.
