George Eliot's last, most ambitious novel, which charts a love story set in Victorian high society, takes a surprising turn into the hidden world of English Jews. Hugh Dancy (Madame Bovary) stars as Daniel Deronda, and Romola Garai (Nicholas Nickleby) is his soul mate Gwendolen Harleth. Though entranced with Daniel, Gwendolen is forced into an oppressive marriage to Henleigh Grandcourt (Hugh Bonneville; Notting Hill, Iris), while Daniel finds a new life through his friendship with singer Mirah Lapidoth (Jodhi May; The Turn of the Screw, Aristocrats). The screenplay is by period drama master Andrew Davies (Middlemarch, Moll Flanders, Wives and Daughters, The Way We Live Now).
