see Arminius (Laurence Rupp) and Thusnelda (Jeanne Goursaud) as the King and Queen, after they've united the tribes against Romans. Rome, as nasty as it always was, will not accept defeat so easily, so we can expect lots of

JAMIE DORNAN & HOLLIDAY GRAINGER TO FIND ROMANCE IN WILD MOUNTAIN THYME MOVIE! JULIAN FELLOWES' 1880'S EPIC DRAMA THE GILDED AGE MOVES TO HBO!

'THE GILDED AGE' MOVES 

FROM NBC TO HBO EPIC STYLE

We expect to hear casting news soon!

While his two other period set dramas Belgravia and The English Game have started production, Julian Fellowes' THE GILDED AGE has just been moved from NBC (where it found home a year ago) over to HBO (which is, admittedly, probably more suited for a rich costume drama) where they just gave a ten episode order to the sweeping epic drama that follows the lives of New York City 1880s millionaires!

GILDED AGE 
 follows Marian Brook, the orphaned daughter of a Southern general, who moves into the home of her rigidly conventional aunts in New York City. Accompanied by the mysterious black woman Peggy Scott, masquerading as her maid, Marian gets caught up in the dazzling lives of her stupendously rich neighbours, led by a ruthless railroad tycoon and his ambitious wife struggling for acceptance by the Astor and Vanderbilt set. Will Marian follow the established rules of society, or forge her own path in this exciting new world that is on the brink of transformation into the modern age?
