The Scapegoat
Set in 1952, as Britain prepares for the coronation, 'The Scapegoat' tells the provocative story of two very different men who have one thing in common - a face. John Standing meets his doppelganger Johnny Spence and, after a drunken night, is manoeuvred into swapping lives with him. Standing is suddenly responsible for a beautiful young wife, two mistresses, a drug abusing mother, a precocious daughter, a crumbling stately home and a bankrupt business. Despite his efforts to escape, John finds himself irresistibly drawn into Johnny's life - with fatal consequences. Based on the acclaimed novel by Daphne du Maurier. Starring: Matthew Rhys, Eileen Atkins and Jodhi May.
