A politician. A young woman. A Russian spy. The British government rocked by scandal. It could be just another day of news. But this is another story, one of the most iconic of the 20th Century and another time…the 1960s. An affair brought the British government to its knees and created a political, se*ual and cultural revolution…
The story of the Profumo Affair has been told many times before…on the big screen, in books galore, on stage and even in song and now a brand new BBC drama takes a look at the real people behind the headlines. The Trial of Christine Keeler flips the focus to the women involved
This enthralling, powerful six-part drama is penned by award-winning screenwriter Amanda Coe and set to air on BBC One this Christmas on 29 and 30 December, continuing on Sunday nights and arrives on DVD and digital from Acorn Media International on 27 January 2019.
