A Very British Scandal

Productinformatie

Based on the infamous 1963 divorce case and sex scandal, A Very British Scandal focuses on the divorce of the Duke and Duchess of Argyll: Ian Campbell (Paul Bettany) and Margaret Campbell (Claire Foy). The public fallout of their relationship led to one of the most notorious, extraordinary, and brutal legal cases of the 20th Century. Famed for her charisma, beauty and style, Margaret dominated the front pages as a divorcee facing accusations of forgery, theft, violence, drug-taking, secret recording, and bribery. An explicit polaroid picture became a notorious element in the scandalous divorce which all played out in the white-hot glare of the 1960s media.
