The Anthony Trollope Collection: The Barchester Chronicles / The Way We Live Now / He Knew He Was Right
Three exceptional BBC mini-series, adapted from the works of 19th century novelist, Anthony Trollope.

'The Way We Live Now' (2001) is a sharp Victorian satire with Matthew Macfadyen, Shirley Henderson and Cillian Murphy as part of an all-star cast. 'He Knew He Was Right' (2004) is a rich depiction of the failure of a marriage due to jealousy, with Bill Nighy, Laura Fraser and Geoffrey Palmer.
