Madame Bovary (BBC)
Marriage to the reliable but unexciting Charles, a provincial doctor, has left Emma Bovary feeling unfulfilled and leads her to look elsewhere for satisfaction. She embarks on a series of affairs and, since this glamorous lifestyle demands more money than Charles can provide, she runs up enormous debts with a devious local tradesman, Lheureux. It seems that Emma's fantasies may lead to her destruction - unless beauty, self-belief and ambition can help her survive... Stars Frances O'Connor, Hugh Bonneville and Eileen Atkins.
